    My co pilot and I discussed the Texas 1/8th mile tracks. It would be cool to run more than one track a day.

    Was cedar creek one we drove by on Monday?

          how about a transport for the 3 cars and one open trailer with the little trailers on it plus a crew cab to transport the drivers of the three cars? Copilots that need to go along from same starting point would require the Suburban/ Excursion option.

                  That was Caddo Mills, another little Texas track with a ton of history. Cedar Creek was on the way from Ennis to Shreveport. Both places are "outlaw" unsanctioned facilities. How about the abandoned ATV drag strip we drove past? That drag strip was on the left side of the road on the way to Memphis...I think. It was all grass.

                    that's the one I remember the most - ATV drag racing on grass - literally within an error state distance from running an ATV off onto a 2 lane highway..... I love America!
                    There's always something new to learn.

                      I missed a bunch of these....

                      For next year I think Brian needs to provide us with some pre-recorded commentary of the drive. Have a setup like in the museums that gives information based on our location
