Watkins Glen and Mid-Ohio, two circuits I know very well; I've been to several races at both.

I've been to both..the Indy 500 use to be the biggest thing in motorsports, but since the split if CART and IRL, its lost some of its luster. I've been to 10 Indy 500's they did not even sell out last yr, even bump day hardly exists any longer. Hopefully the two CART and IRL will get back together as One and have a great race, they've had exciting fnishes there, it would be nice if the weatherman co-operated also in that area....But for now I say the Daytona 500 is better, had a great finish last yr, remember Andretti and Foyt have won the Daytona 500 as well. I doubt Franchitti or Hornish Jr,Villeneuve will add that to their stats this yr.. Yes winning the Indy 500 is the big one to the open wheel guys, but winning the Daytona 500 to Nascar drivers is their big one..As far as fans, its all about what you prefer...I'm a auto racing fan, I watch both.

I'd say Chicagoland.....they always have close finishes and fast speeds on that track. It also might help that I live close by and see the races live, but if you want to see another IRL race besides the Indy 500 of course, I'd pick the race at Chicagoland Speedway.

I like to watch the road course races. Watkins Glen and Infineon are always fun to watch. I liked watching the St. Petersburg race this year especially since Helio won. I am really looking forward to the race at Mid-Ohio, I might even go to this race if I get the chance. Also, they added Belle Isle in Detroit this year, which should be fun to watch. So, to answer your question, I will say all of them! :)

Watkins Glen. It is techically difficult but still has many spots for passing. The straights are long enough for a little drag racing and it is just hilly enough to add another dimension. It always rained when I have been there, but it is perfect for TV. They must have good prize money because they always get a great field.

With out a doubt...Texas.
Night racing on a large track is the most exciting watch on TV. Richmond and Nashville offer some great racing, but at a mile and half, the cars and drivers really get to strut their stuff.

Only racing thats my favorite to watch is NASCAR.
There's like no excitement in Indy racing.

If I catch them, I want to see the two remaining road course events.
