toronto, Indianapolis. i kno its not the same, but theres a Champ Car race in Cleveland every year, and it was a coupple weeks ago, and my friend went and he said it was mad cheap to go and was a really good time. makes for a really good day trip. i think they have some kind of a Corvette LeMans type sereies race the night before, so it would be like a drive down saturday afternoon, go to the race saturday night, get a hotel for a night, go to the champ car race sunday, drive home sunday night. if you could get a coupple friends to split a hotel with u, i bet u could get away with it costing u less than $200 for the whole thing including gas. i plan on doing it next year for sure ---

You can see Vintage F1 cars @ Watkins Glen every year, they still cut mid 1:30 lap times for the full course, which is screaming fast. After the past two USGP’s at Indy, I hope they go somewhere else, like Road Atlanta. I wish they could come back to Watkins Glen, but that’s impossible and will NEVER happen. ---

If he doesn’t know where the F1 races are yet then he probably wouldn’t know the difference between F1 and any other type of open wheel race.😛 So yeah, there is a great F1 race at The Glen every year!!!😉 ---
