Watkins Glen International Opening Day

Opening Day paced laps at Watkins Glen International are $20 for 3 laps this year on Sunday, April 30th.

Watkins Glen International
2790 County Route 16
Watkins Glen, NY 14891


Meet at the 3rd entrance at 10 AM. Drive down to the 1st entrance, wind our way through the crowds to the track (this takes time because there are a LOT of cars there), pretend we are Mario Andretti, or Stirling Moss if you are as old as I am, and then head out for lunch.
Lunch will be at 2 pm at Abigail's Restaurant
1978 Waterloo Seneca Falls Rd Waterloo, NY 13165 Phone: (315) 539-9300


We'll be on 2 way radio channel 7, sub channel 21

I find it tough to take pictures while driving on the track, though I can't say I've never done it...
