    Perhaps our forum participants can share where they have been to the races - of any code. Remember you must have stood on the course, not just flown over it or driven past the gate!


    I'll kick it off with tracks I have been to - plus some of the "former" sites where they once went around. I think I have covered them all but have probably forgotten some!


    Will be interesting to see who is our widest travelled contributor!

    (Went once as a 19yo with mates but I don't remember leaving the bar or seeing a dog)

    Thanks Kyle that clarifies things for me and explains why I do not remember seeing daylight, starlight, the lit track or anything - the lack of memory, I am putting that down to it being 40yrs ago (not alcohol)
