    What tracks/raceways/circuits have you been to?

    How many people out there have been out to their local racing track or anything? I personally haven't gone much, just been up to Bathurst around Mt Panorama a couple of times (for those who dont know whenever the 1000km race for the ATCC and teh 24hr race for PROCAR arent on, its a normal public road) and ive been to Eastern Creek Raceway to the dragstrip once, but Bathurst is 1 and a half hours drive from where i am compared to the 10 or 15 minutes drive to Eastern Creek, and ive also got Oran Park about half an hour away so im almost in the centre of motorsport in Sydney.

    So what are everyone elses experiences?

    Mainly the fun tracks, hoping to have some time free to take the A610 out to some of the European circuits now offering track days

    How easy is it to get tickets and viewing at Bathurst ?
    How often is it used beyond the 1000 ???
    Is it a track best seen on TV - I gues there's not a lot of viewing on the mountain ??
    Business is picking up in the antipodes and if I've a choice, I'd come during race season

    The nearest track to me is Road Atlanta so I have been there several times.

    I went to the US GP at Indy in 2000 and 2001.

    There is a new road course in Birmingham Alabama I plan to attend races there this year.

    I went to Mid-Ohio raceway and Burke Lakefront Airport in Cleveland Ohio to see CART races. Too bad CART isn't around anymore because seeing CART races in person is great.

    Bathurst for the 1000 (but it's not really my thing). Other than that to Adelaide when the GP was on and to Monza for the GP also.
