I grew up in Colchester, Ct back in the 60's. We lived on Rte. 16 about 1/2 a mile from the track entrance. Used to get my dad to take us every chance we could, but just being able to hear the cars from my front yard was awesome! Watching the racers haul their cars past my house is something I will never forget. Really hurt when they shut down in the 80's. I now live in Oregon and we have a 1/4 mile facility 15 miles away in Woodburn. Every July they host the Northwest Mopar Nationals. A great time for sure!
