How many tracks have you raced at or been to ?

[Bret Kepner]

My experience at Dauphin Island was made much more enjoyable by the track owner, FasCat. I had arrived in the pouring rain and there was nobody on the property so, being an inquisitive trespasser, I decided to drive in and check out the track. Unfortunately, I got stuck in a sand/mud bog down near the finish line and sank 'er up to the hubs. I got out, walked in the rain back to the Dauphin Island Parkway and was greeted by a gentleman on tractor headed right for me. I flagged him down but he had already witnessed my stupidity and, with a laugh, came over to pull me out! It turned out he was the owner and he was a genuininely good guy.

I actually left the track and headed south down the Parkway to the Island and grabbed a motel room and enjoyed a few days on the beach. The track has just recently become a subdivision and Dauphin Island itself has been split by multiple hurricanes.
