I've always wanted to visit Tri-City Dragway near Freeland, Michigan. They used to run races when I was a kid, and even though I begged my dad to take me, he never did. As a teenager with his first set of wheels, I used to wish the track was still opened, but it never came back.

Hey Bill, do you remember the little Vespa called "No Big Thing"? I have a few pics of it I just found.
