Any good racing events on the east coast????

I was wondering if you guys who live on the east coast (or not) could recommend any good car races to go see. I live in Ct about 30 minutes from New York city.

a couple of thoughts.

Watkins Glen is a great racetrack to see a race. Check the schedule at:
http://www.theglen.com/buy%5Ftickets...5Fof%5Fevents/
They are racing the Indies there in June. It's a bit far from CT though (about 4-5 hours)

Closer is Lime Rock (1-2 hours):
http://www.limerock.com/
Limerock has the Le Mans & Rolex GT series which are quite good.

There is always the Montreal Formula 1 GP.
http://www.formula1.com/race/destination_guide/759.html
This is about 6 hours away. Tough to get tickets to. But definitely a worthwhile trip.

At the Glen you can see the Grand Am series, IRL, NASCAR.
Its one of my favorites to go to, and I'm on the west coast.

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely with a pretty, well preserved body. The goal is to skid in broadside, tires smoking, body all dented, leaking fluids, gas gauge on empty, throughly used up and worn out, proclaiming, "Holy sh!t, what a ride!"
