Car has a Historic tag (IE: permanent registration no expiration) on it. I could drive it without doors, glass, fenders, headlights (need taillight/brake lights), heck even an exhaust system if I wanted to and still not get in trouble. Originally Posted by Hot Rod Nick

For the moment, but that is subject to change in the not so near future Originally Posted by rspears

Watkins Glen is still my favorite road race course. Having raced there from early 1982 to 2012 (I have yet to be on track in 2013), the location in my profile has always changed as my residence in a particular area has.... Originally Posted by Hot Rod Nick

Oh, Watkins Glen is my fav, also. It is so steeped in history, plus the track with all it's turns and elevation changes are almost impossible to beat. I haven't driven on it for a couple years, but Bill, maybe we should have a CHR Watkins Glen Reunion Party and we can meet in person. My "track car" had 200 less horsepower last time I was there ...although I'm not so sure my driving abilities have kept pace with my horsepower growth Originally Posted by mrmustang
Btw, since New Jersey Motorsports Park opened I feel like I have a great track 3 hours closer to home. NJMP is also a very nice venue.
When I have been to WG in the previous 20 years I always enjoy cruising on the back roads around the lake/s and stopping at the random pubs to have a beer and meet the locals...I have some nice experiences from doing that...I forgot her name, though. But she was soft and warm and very compatible to my points of view of life.Nick

I'm waiting for Liberty Bell Motorsports park to break ground
Also, you just never know where I might be, as I was in Haverford on Tuesday
