There isn't much to be found on the net on the subject of RIR. Here is one
link with very little information, all it really has is track maps:
http://www.racesimcentral.net/

You might be interested in the new book by*** Wallen, "Riverside Raceway,
Palace of Speed". http://www.racesimcentral.net/
It's very pricy, but if you, like me, spent a lot of time there or just want
a comprehensive history of the circuit, it's worth the money.

I'd misplaced Wallen's addy.  He's best known for books about oval-track
racing (board tracks, midgets, stocks, Sprint & Champ cars, etc.).  The
Riverside book is a hundred bucks for 160 or so pages, but includes 900 b/w
fotos, 150 color, and lots of stats.  ($125 for the slip-cased version.)  A
must if you miss Riverside as much as I do.  I keep hoping somebody will
make the sports car version (the rest of T6--bypassing T8--and 7/7a) with as
much attention to detail as GPLEA has put into, say, Snetterton '67.  Also
hope somebody does likewise for Bridgehampton (a book and a GPL track),
arguably the only American track in the same league as Riverside.

There's also some stuff posted by Sim Racing News' Marc Nelson on his
Extinct Track Archive site:

Appreciate it, lads,

Colin.

Hey! Many of the photographs on Marc's site are mine! I didn't know that
site was still up, I thought Marc had given up on it.

Thanks Steve,
