Default Rank your favorite track

Seeing as there are so many people from everywhere in North America on this forum, I was just wondering what the best/worst track you've been to is. Mine are as follows :

1. Norwalk Raceway Park, Norwalk Ohio
2. Grand Bend Motorplex, Grand Bend Ontario
3. IRP, Indianapolis Indiana
4. Milan Dragway, Milan Michigan
5. Toronto Motorsports Park
6. St Thomas Dragway, St Thomas Ontario
7. Lapeer Dragway, Lapeer Michigan

PS I don't care about brand names for venues

Ive been to Norwalk and Milan both pretty nice but I really enjoy Bristrol. Nothing like the Fuel Cars echoing off the Mountains during Night Qualifying ("Night of Fire")

as far as tracks go... I've been to ubly dragway, milan dragway and US 131 dragway

as far as quality... US-131 takes the cake

as far as what I preferred... ubly dragway by far, sure track prep wasn't the greatest but it wasn't horrible either... the reason I love it is every time I go there it's a guaranteed 20+ passes if I want them

So far:

1. Milan Dragway
2. Lapeer Dragway


Lapeer has fewer cars, while Milan is 'supposed' to have better track prep, but about twice (at least) the amount of cars there regularly. Both have the same price for TNT nights.

That's just because you had a few doubters in the 4.6 section. Go back and run the same times, and tell those 4.6 tools to STFU.

I am going back there in a couple of days. If i run those kind of trap speeds again, i'll then going to another track to see if it happens there as well. If it does, then any doubters can kiss my a**. If not then Milan needs to get their act together!

I've only been to one track so far, and I'm extremely pleased with it. Cordova Dragway, in Cordova, IL. Usually great weather conditions (Lots of ~0 DA, often times negative DA), and track prep is always good, except on Midnight Mayhem nights. But, I usually just watch those, instead of participating.
