Haven't spent much time in Australia really. Spring racing in Melbourne is definitely on my 'to do' list though.

But not quite as high on the list as the trip to the Kentucky Derby the year after I finish studying. Already saving up for that even though it's still 4 years away.

Those of you that list Garden State Park date themselves. The one that lists Keystone really dates themself.

And Byk...what, no Timonium? It's only been running since the late 1800s. You should do an ATRAB show there, live from the state fair.

Cardus,

Yeah, Belgium was easy. I lived there for a little over 4 years. The best part was having the opportunity to visit some really nice tracks throughout Europe.

Asia and South America are not quite on the short list, but I'll get there eventually. This year's venture is Ireland, '09 is a swing through Switzerland, Italy and southern France, and '10 is a run through Victoria (Melbourne), Australia.

Scav,

It's been great fun. Been at it for a little over 30 years. Much as I love racing here in the US, it can be a little boring (left turn, left turn, finish). Hopefully, you'll have the chance to catch some racing abroad and see some really unique layouts.
