    Haven't been to all the FL tracks, so it's hard to make a comment.

    I will say that besides East Bay, the most intense racing I've seen in Florida has been at New Smyrna Speedway watching the NASCAR tour modifieds. The Blewett Memorial 76 lap race on Wednesday of Speedweek is side by side, late braking and scary fast. Sorry to say, but much more action in that race than at Volusia.

      Volusia isn't too bad. It's a big track but races like a smaller track. Maybe if it was shrunk down just a little bit the racing might improve. It has a similar feel to East Bay? Close to the beach. Plenty of decent places to stay. Good places to eat. Plenty of things to do close by. The big track probably keeps some of the smaller funded times from racing there? It sure is a nice place for us Northerner's to get away to, just wish it was a little warmer like East Bay usually was.

        N. Florida, Hendry, Ocala. That's about it. I won't waste my time with any 1/2 mile tracks anymore. At least you have got a chance for good racing at the 3/8 mile tracks although nothing is a given. It's a shame they don't have any bullrings down there.

            Hendry has potential. It reminds me a lot of moler.

            All tech and Volusia both race well for big tracks.

            One has to think with the connections the HTF guys have, southern will be on a national schedule next February. That place has not impressed me much from the videos I have seen from there. Hopefully they can make it better.

            I think we have a better chance of hitting the powerball than East Bay coming back.

              Ive only been to Ocala twice, and Volusia maybe a dozen times. Ocala i saw 1 good race and 1 ok. Volusia had good racing from what I can remember back in 14-16, with LMs sprints and both groups of mods. Im still kicking myself for not going to Eastbay. I used to live about an hour south of there, but was too busy with work and thought "it's not going anywhere, ill get there 1 of these days!"
