I'm almost embarrassed to admit that I still haven't been there even though I'm a big racing fan. I do NEED to get there. Every couple of years my parents take their camper up there with other friends and their campers and spend the weekend watching the races. It always seems to interfere with my schedule. The next time they go, I'm going.
I find it interesting that a little state like CT, in the Northeast which wouldn't exactly be considered a racing hotbed, has three sanctioned NASCAR oval tracks (
Stafford Motor Speedway,
Waterford Speedbowl and
Thompson International Speedway) and a road racing track (Lime Rock Park) which also happens to host NASCAR events.
I finally got to Thompson for the first time this year so Lime Rock is the last one on my check list.
