From the travels and adventures of the “World’s #1 Trackchaser”
All-Time Favorite Connecticut Track:
Stafford Springs Motor Speedway
Best Memories:
I first went to the Stafford Springs Motor Speedway all the way back in 1980. Geoff Bodine ended up winning the Spring Sizzler. It was too bad we only lived in Ridgefield, Connecticut for 15 months in 1979-80. I might have gone back to Stafford many more times. I loved the seafood chowder at Lime Rock Park. Mototown USA was memorable. The track was located inside a shopping center…with no heat! The Hebron Harvest Fair figure 8 race might have been the most crowded fairgrounds I ever visited.
