EXCLUSIVE!!
 
 
It had to happen sooner or later.  We're on YouTube!  Yes, someone caught the action of our media/celebrity race in Wisconsin on video and added the appropriate Sopranos music to the soundtrack.  I'm leading the race in the yellow Chevy, while Carol is driving the pink #07 car.  I'm sure special photography technology has been used to make the cars appear to be racing at slower speeds than the near 150 M.P.H. we were going.  Late in the 43-second clip, Carol gets spun out and I nearly t-bone her!  It's all part of the family fun.

2008 Trackchasing Season Review

If you are interested is reviewing my 2008 trackchasing season, click HERE.  During 2008 season I visited 102 new tracks in 29 U.S. states, 5 Canadian  provinces as well as seeing new tracks in Austria, China, Costa Rica, Czech Republic, Denmark, Guyana, Ireland, Jamaica, South Africa, Sweden andThailand for the very first time.

2007 Trackchasing Season Review

If you are interested is reviewing my 2007 trackchasing season, click HERE.  During 2007 season I visited 160 new tracks in 34 U.S. states as well as seeing new tracks in Barbados, Canada, Mexico and New Zealand.  It was my second best season ever as I strengthened my hold on the title of the "World's #1 Ranked Trackchaser.

2006 Trackchasing Season Review

If you are interested is reviewing my 2006 trackchasing season, click HERE.  During 2006 season I visited 147 new tracks in 37 U.S. states as well as seeing new tracks in Canada, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.  It was an excellent year where I improved my worldwide trackchaser ranking from #5 to being the "World's #1 Ranked Trackchaser."

I am a trackchaser.  I will go all over the United States and the world in search of auto racing tracks.  To date, I have been to more than 1,400 tracks and am the World's #1 Ranked Trackchaser as verified by the hobbies official sanctioning body at www.trackchaser.net.  In order for a track to be "countable" it must meet trackchaser rules.  You can take a look at those rules at www.trackchaser.net

 

I will also share information about the tracks I've visited.  When I can, I will include pictures from the track and any interesting sites I've seen along the trackchasing trail.  Currently, my site has more than 20,000 pictures from my trackchasing travels.  Hopefully, these pictures will make the trackchasing reports come alive.  Maybe, the words and pictures will make you feel like you've actually been there.

I really value your feedback.  If you see something you like, don't hesitate to send me an email.  On the other hand, if you see something you don't like try to put it out of your mind immediately.  Just kidding, if you see an improvement opportunity, let me know.  I will value your feedback and consider it when I make changes to the website.  The website program I'm working with does not have a spellchecker.  Therefore, you are forewarned.

Thanks and enjoy what I've put together for you,

Randy Lewis
