        My list is short but there are some great ones.

        Pomona
        Ontario Motor Speedway - Dead
        Riverside Raceway - Dead
        OCIR - Dead
        Indianapolis
        California Speedway
        Firebird
        Laguna Seca
        Las Vegas Motor speedway . . . .That would be 9.

        The one track I'd love to go to that I haven't been to yet is Darlington.
        Just groovin' to my own tune.

          More road courses than drag strips for me I'm going to say.

          Drag strips:

          Toronto Motorsports Park (Cayuga)
          St. Thomas Dragway ... those are the 2 of the local ones here in southern Ontario
          Norwalk in Ohio
          KilKare, Xenia Ohio
          Thunder Valley Raceway in Noble, near OKC (tech guy there was impressed when he saw the Ontario plate on my car)

          Road courses:

          Mosport Int'l Raceway
          Shannonville Motorsport Park
          Calabogie Motorsports
          Toronto Motorsports Park
          Dunnville Autodrome ... those are all of the road courses in southern Ontario ;)

          Watkins Glen Int'l
          Nelson Ledges, Ohio ... did the "Longest Day" 24 hour there in the early 90s
          Sebring in Florida ... did a 12 hr. Firehawk series race there
          Waterford Hills in Michigan

          These ones I've only crewed at for Grand-Am Cup (now Continental Challenge), haven't driven them ...

          Homestead in Miami
          Daytona
          Pocono
          Trois-Rivieres
          Mt-Tremblant


          cheers

            Just Beech Bend here in Bowling Green and the Ohio Valley Dragway near Louisville. My crew doesn't tend to stray far from home to race.

              Re: How many Race Tracks have you been to?

              Been to 12 different tracks in my adult life, and raced at 8. I didn't count any SCCA Autocross' I've ran at, since they're in parking lots lol.

              Alittle bit of everything on my list, 1/8, 1/4 mile Drags and dirt and paved ovals around the northeast, one trip to Maxton, Watkins Glen.

              Quite a few motocross', hair scrambles and speedway/flattrack moto stuff and snowmobile grass drags I've been/raced at that I did put in the "car" count either.

              The list of pay-to-race Go-Cart tracks I've been at is HUGE however ;D

                Re: How many Race Tracks have you been to?

                So far I have been to 12 dirt tracks.

                Only big name track every went to was Brainerd and O'Reillys at Indy. (This was for goodguys and the vintage drags were amazing)

                I think something needs to change in the future!!

                    Too many to count.
                    Do the ones that were closed count too?
