I've always liked the turn 2 barn at Attica.  It's Midwest/Ohio rural life...love it

There are some great photos out there with cars in the foreground

I'm going with Port Royal & Path Valley, which includes getting there

I drove from Gettysburg to Path on back roads one time, seemed like it was mostly hunting camps... "the bear went over the  mountain"?

Surprised how green & hilly Southern Indiana can be, drives to Lawrencebiug & Haubstadt can be nice. Road from Haubstadt to Terre haute looks almost like "Olde New England" Smile

I second Calistoga, but I have not been to some of the other tracks mentioned.

Maybe not the most scenic track, but sunsets over turn 4 at the Grove are nice

It's a tie between The Magic Mile on the Du Quoin State Fairgrounds in Du Quoin, Illinois and Ventura Raceway.

  And right above  the scoring tower in the picture  was one of the best surf spots on the west coast, Surfers' Point.  Lived there for many years and rode a lot of terrific waves there, mostly before all the area development.  Built boards in Ventura and had a lot of happy hours there

Same for me, but in reverse. Never been to Calistoga or Ventura

Only Perris & Tulare in California...

From a camping and things to do during the days Cedar Lake has always been my top choice.  I have camped at both Knoxville and Eldora where there were more cars but the country feel of CLS along with the nearby tubing during the day with buses to the Apple River are a blast.  2020 isn't a normal season so some of those things could be closed right now but t in a more normal year CLS is always my idea of a fun experience.

Big Sky in Montana just seems like it's its own little paradise in the middle of nowhere from the photos I've seen.

I just noticed one thing: bleachers aren't facing sea & sunsets

What were they thinking?

 It's all CA for me, Calistoga with a golf course bordering it and Ventura with the Ocean right there.  Perth, Australia had one that closed but the bar and outdoor patio next door to turn 4 was beautiful to me....

Calistoga is pretty good but non natives may not have noticed the sewage settling "ponds" that weren't very scenic.  The late Dave Bradway nearly drowned in one when he got upside down many years ago.  That would be no one's choice of how to go.
