If you can get to start at F.Erie(Buffalo) it is less than 90 minutes south to Presque Isle. From there Thistle is less than 90 minutes west. From thistle its probably another 90 minutes south to Mountaneer.

Fort Erie---Never been
Presque Isle----New and descent racing with slot casino
Thistle downs----mediocre facility not great racing
Mountaineer --------track is a craphole but new Casino Hotel(slots and table games) is very nice. However there is nothing else at all to do in the area.

If you had a Designated Driver you could so Thistle and the Mount in the same day.

Hope this helps if you decide to come to this area

May want to look at it by which tracks won't be around for too much longer. Colonial may close. Thistledown is in trouble. And I'm sure there may be others.
