How many races attended in 2018? ....

[kd1]

With the possibility of attending one more in late December … I've went to 52 races at 32 different tracks in 12 states ..my home state Tennessee led the way with 18 races ..i'm curious to know other peoples numbers for the year especially what seemed to be a season with a lot of rain .. I know it affected my numbers and plans … :)

[Mod Runner]

I made it to just 3 DLM races this year. All other events I wanted to go to were rained out.

[zyoung25]

My wrist band count is near 30. Atomic and Florence got the majority of that count.

Still not enough......

[BTExpress]

2018 was a decent year for me to see dirt racing despite the weather. I attended 24 races split pretty evenly between DLM's and 410 sprint cars. Two highlights were attending my first two LOLMDS events at Hagerstown and Port Royal and also attending my first Crown Jewel event at Lernerville.

[taz1458]

Only 66. Was shooting for 80. All of the rainouts in March, April and May ended any hope of that. Might have a couple more in December at Trenton and Ft. Wayne but idk yet.

[15b24fan]

I was able to attend 12 races. Five races were late models - MLRA at 34 Raceway, WoO late model race at Dubuque Speedway, Three nights of LOLM at Knoxville Raceway. Five races were sprint cars - WoO sprint cars at Knoxville, Knoxville Nationals (Saturday only), Allstar 410's Angell Park, Sprint Invader 360's at Dubuque and Tipton. I also made two races at Road America - IndyCar and Xfinity Series. You can never get to too many races, but overall it was an enjoyable season for me. Always looking forward to the next race.

[No_Weak_Links]

Somewhere around 40

[slmcrewchief99]

Just short of 40. If some of yall want to step up with some sponsorship donations, I can start my 2019 count in Arizona. We have plenty of places on the car for sponsors.

[formercrewguy]

Only 15 for me. 7 states, over 4,000 mi. You guys in the Midwest and east have it made. DLM racing in the West is dead.

[jlacey]

Only made it to 5 this year since i couldn't do the Screven/Bubba/Volusia trip, or the world finals. Lucas race at Cherokee, following night at Caraway, Winchester 1 and 2 reg shows at Potomac. Hope to hit more next year.

[Shiny Side Up 18]

50 for me, not counting 3 rainouts.

[JMDraceHD98]

Only 22 for me. The lowest count I have had since i started recording my races. 10 of these races were either WOO or Lucas. New tracks this year for me were Marshalltown IA, Macon Ill, Mansfield OH.

[dirt crow]

Not enough. I hate rain.

[Josh Bayko]

I made it to five races total. Two of them were multi day shows.

[MI Dirt Fan]

Too little of an amount to even remember

[FastEd95]

Weather was horrible much of the season so I only made it to 45 shows at 21 tracks in four states (MN, IA, WI, IL)...Deer Creek - 8; Fairmont - 6; Lansing - 5; Davenport - 3; Webster City - 3; Marshalltown - 2; Mason City - 2; Algona - 2; Independence - 2; Elko, Jackson, Lacrosse, Fountain City, Burlington, Columbus Junction, West Union, Dubuque, Britt, East Moline, Knoxville and Maquoketa - 1.

[HoosierDirtFan]

Made it to 36 races. Weather rained out about 7 / 8 more of them that I was going to.

[champion24]

45ish on dirt, 55ish total! Too many according to my wife and kids, but not enough for me!! Many rainouts, especially for bigger events, screwed up the whole year! Driving all day from the World 100 at Eldora to Senoia in Sept was painful, but I didn't let the weather totally win that Saturday!! Sad and admirable at the same time!! I have friends that have done 100+ a year for many years!! I think my best was 80ish, so I'm a lightweight compared to them!! Maybe some of them will actually put their # on here, or text me back!!

[dch191]

Maybe 8-10 total for me. All local shows except for the $10k mod show at FALS. Gotta say having DoD and racindirt helped a lot because I was able to order a dozen or so ppvs to watch from home when there wasn’t anything worth going to close to home which unfortunately happens way to often in the western KY area

[RiffRaf67]

I attended 39 races this year, tad below normal, mainly due to the large number of rain outs.

[garacefan11]

I was wayyyyy off pace at 15. From reading these threads I imagined some of you guys would have been to 2..maybe 300 hundred

[Roundtown21]

Did 41 this year, which was a new record for me. 16 at Atomic, Portsmouth 9, Eldora 8, Mansfield 4, Florence 3 and Attica 1. Lucky that eldora and florence are my furthest tracks at 130 miles each. Had there not been so many rainouts might have hit my goal of 50.

[dmr37]

About 20 races in 2018. New track for me - Shady Hill (Indiana). Other tracks attended: Fairbury, Kankakee, LaSalle, Sycamore, Rt 66, Slinger, and Grundy

[golddirt]

Lees than 10 and 1/2 weren't late model shows! Hmmm

[Squirrel#3s]

Lol!!!! 0.....first time since I was 15 I haven’t been to a race! I’m 38 right now.

[TerryM]

Around 20 or so. Stopped counting a couple months ago because of so many rainouts. Don't attend as many races since moving to Georgia in 2014 because, to be honest, racing down here sucks compared to where I'm from.

[One Man Gang]

I made it too 3 at North Alabama, 2 at Magnolia, 1 at Elkins and 1 at Smoky Mountain. I was like everybody else on the rainouts I bet rain knocked me out of at least 10-12 shows.

[Highside Hustler25]

37. Almost half were Summernationals.

[pink floyd]

57 in 5 states

[Hoosier]

Track chasing: Randy Lewis has been to 2500+ tracks (ovals, figure 8, and road courses). https://randylewis.org/

[Zonks32x]

Only 12 races this year...due to Ma Nature. She cost me at least 10 rainouts, and fishing trips conflicted with 6 more.

Pevely, MO, 141 Speedway, WI, Sycamore, IL, Wilmot, WI, Luxemburg, WI, Beaver Dam (2), Plymouth, WI, Cedar Lake (3), and my annual visit to see the tar cars at Slinger Speedway to support my local track.

[old84]

57 races at 21 different tracks in 3 states. 15 rainouts the most I have had in at least 15 years. still going to a lot more local races after cutting back on travelling about 5 years ago.

Good thing everything else is better to balance it out.

I'll Amen that one.

[W2Racing09]

70 for me this year, I was going to try for 71 at Trenton but I'm going to pass and call it a season.

Thanks,
Jeff.

My hobby is something called, "trackchasing". I try to see racing at as many different tracks as I can. In 2018, so far, I've seen racing at 106 different tracks. All of these visits were the first time I had seen any of those 106 tracks. There was a lot of travel involved. I saw racing in 27 different states in the U.S. I saw a race in each of the ten Canadian provinces, one Mexican state and four of the six Australian states. All of this included racing in ten countries: AUSTRALIA, BELARUS, BOLIVIA, CANADA, MALDIVES, MEXICO, MOLDOVA, PORTUGAL, SPAIN, UNITED STATES. I'm not done yet for 2018. I've still got about a half dozen races to see in two foreign countries. To date, I've seen racing at 2,513 tracks in 81 different countries. After each race I attend I post a YouTube video on my website (YouTube channel name: RANLAY. I've got more than 1,200 videos with more than one million views on my channel), a photo album and a Trackchaser Report (review). I hope everyone has a great holiday and gets to see a lot of racing in 2019. If you'd like to take a look at my website, it's www.randylewis.org. All the best, Randy Lewis - World's #1 Trackchaser

That's both crazy and awesome. What's your favorite type of racing and where does dirt late model racing rank?
