How far do you drive to your track?

So I have 1/8th track 20 minutes from me. But the 1/4th is about an hour. I was going to go tonight but got lazy since its an hour each way..

Just wondering what everyones time is and how often you go.

About 140 miles to Gateway Motorsports in Granite City, Ill. Just outside St louis, MO

90 miles for me to Sacramento Raceway Park. It very rarely has a well prepped starting line, but the air density can be very good.

About 10 miles to Willow Springs if I go the long way and stop for fuel and coffee.

About 30 minutes to my 1/8 mile track, but I hate 1/8 mile and don't bother with it anymore. My 1/4 mile track is about a 90 minute drive and well worth it.

I'm about 30 mins away unless I leave from work then its only a mile down the road to one of the best tracks in the country, Summit Motorsports Park in Norwalk OH. I'm spoiled.

Why don't you mess with the 1/8th anymore?

If I go to Atco after work, it is a little more than an hour away. Then another hour home. If I go to Englishtown, its about 30 mins from work and then another 50 mins home.
