    I so love LeMans, best event I ever attended, lucky you Carole. Except for one, the year that Dale Jr won at Daytona in July after his dad died in February. That was unbelievable, the best, 125,000 people cried including me. Even my ex-wife agrees.

    But great races like that will never repeat, so LeMans rules.

    All events at Mid-Ohio

    Grand Am
    Vintage Cars
    Vintage Bikes
    Superbikes
    ALMS
    IRL
    NASA Nationals

    Then

    Petite LeMans
    Moto GP

    I said in 1995, I would never go to an IRL event but they came with my season pass at Mid-Ohio. I saw practice and qualifying but did not stay for the race. I loved the Indy 500 until the split. Time wounds all heals so I may go to at least practice or qualifying for the Indy 500 but will be disappointed that Ashley Judd is no longer involved.

    Tried to work in Montreal, but no.

    One more ALMS event to be decided.

    I'm taking a lot of grief from a couple of buddies for not going to watch them run Modified dirt cars. Spent last night drinking beer at their shop. They cherry pick money events in the east US. $750K transports. 860 HP and 160 MPH on 1/2 mile tracks.

    I'll be going to Sebring this year, but this time I will put the camper on the outside of the track. It was a real mud pit last year.

    Almost forgot, we're also going to attend the NHRA Fall Nationals at Texas Motorplex. Great fun, though top fuel is sure rough on the ears.

    Once upon a time... my goal was to go to (see) the 3 crown jewels of modern endurance racing all in the same year...24 Daytona, 12 Sebring, 24 Lemans.

    Spending 3 months in FLA over the winter easily coverd the first 2...my lazy a$$ coulnd't get to France.

    Back to the OP....

    This year I plan on

    12 Sebring ALMS
    IRL or Cart: Milwaukee (whichever shows up)
    SVRA Vintage (Road America)
    Vegas (Nascar)

    Hopefully some others.
