I read the F1 vs. IRL vs. NASCAR vs. Touring Car debate and I wondered, what is the best race you have ever seen? SCCA , IMSA, AMA etc. Anything pros, amatuers, bikes, boats, whatever. In person, on TV, a participant etc. Lets hear from you guys.

Personally, I like the early, creative stage of a new grassroots class before it gets too structured. In other words, when it's nothing but privateers with a welder, a spare motor, and too much time on their hands. In general, I'm talking about the kind of wacky off-season local events the Speed Channel used to carry.
At the other extreme, someday I'm going to have to make a pilgrimage to the Belgian Grand Prix. Heck, if I was offered a ride in a local/regional riding mower race I'd take it in a heartbeat. I just discovered the wooden roller-coaster style gocart tracks (I'd only been on the slicktracks or mini-road-course type before). What a hoot (unless the rev limiter is set too conservatively (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) )!!! :drive: |
