Where in the world do r.a.s. regulars live?

The long thread spun off into local banter about Detroit, New Jersey and hockey, and ended with jokes about an eccentric website.

A couple three years ago there was a site that we could log in to and say where we were and what Sims we ran. Then anyone could log in and do a search on our own location and find everyone near by and what sims they ran. I met two people with in 10 miles of me through that.

I live in Petaluma, California (USA).... It is in the North Bay Area, of San Francisco.....about 50 miles north of the Golden Gate bridge, on the coastal peninsula. This is also the area where Sears Point Raceway is located...it is about 20 minutes, nearly due east of my house. Petaluma also has a small-town style dirt track....that occasionally gets some of the World Of Outlaw teams and drivers, along with the local "dirt track racers" who run there every Saturday night, almost year round. And, the World of Outlaw, Calistoga Race (one of the more popular stops on the WoO tour) is about 40 minutes away. Racing, of all types, is very popular in this area, particularly road racing because of the famous Sears Point Raceway, and Laguna Seca which is in Monterey, California...about a two hour drive south of San Francisco (a three-hour drive for me). However, I moved to this location only about 3 years ago. Prior to that, I lived in Portland, Oregon, for 21 years. I mention this, since many of my online sim racings friends...whom I've known since the early TEN days....still think I live in Portland. I have been sim racing since about 1996. Gosh, I just realized that was the same time I got divorced. Wonder if there was any correlation between the two? .....lol..... Thanks for starting this "string," Oz....its great to see where everyone is from! Tom Pabst PS: I suppose that "ymenard"....full name: Francois Menard......is going to once again claim to be a French-speaking Canadian, from Montreal, Quebec. He always does that....lol... You guys all know he's totally "pulling our legs"....right? Well, maybe some of you new guys don't. Francois.....isn't from Quebec....he's from.... Little Rock, Arkansas and he's a total "red-neck" geeker..... who likes to think he's a Frenchman! He's such a kidder!

I grew up about a mile and a half from what was--when it was built, and for about the next ten years--the best damn dirt track in the State of Tennessee . . . Smoky Mountain Raceway. It was better known than Bristol for quite a while and held two sanctioned NASCAR races for several years. Used to hunt arrowheads when I was a kid (and found a few) in the cornfield that later became the track.

The reason everything in America is called 'New' is because we tend to shorten the official names. For example....what most of the world knows as "New England" is really "New and Improved England." Same goes for "New & IMproved York," and "New & Improved Jack City." Since you asked :) dave henrie
