Maybe in the future at the Glen, Summit, etc. Just getting our feet wet with known venues (I've run events for the national Lotus Club at these tracks) that are within easy reach.
Happy Motoring!

Welcome! Since you are taking requests 
How about Mid-Ohio, or BeaveRun! I could make it Putman Park but it is a bit of a strech for me without a trailer. Although I've been to Waterford Hills, Mi and back before.

I remember seeing eh NASCAR trucks run there several years ago and thought it was a pretty cool track.
I guess all the walls and baracades at the entrance to the drag strip would be a little hairy. The entrance to the drag strip at NPR was intimidating at first ...

Runoff was poor there and remember something about a Culvert or something like that track left that reachable if you go off. I dont know if that been adressed. But Ive been to a lot of different tracks and thats not one I'd even consider going back too..

Hearltaned Park spent a large chunk of change to clean the facility up since the SCCA national run offs are now held there. Like you I thought it was in need of a facelift, but several track rats like me were out there about 2 weeks ago and raved about Heartland Park.

Mitch its not really the baracades for me. Its not like you are going 130+ mybe 115 then hit the brakes. Its what is on the other side when you come over the top. There was NO runoff to track left. So if you got wheels off there you couldnt go straight because it drops to the left. If you did yank the wheel back to the right and loose it. The Concret walls on the left would hurt. 2 wk before we got there there was a porsche driver killed there. Some had questions of the track but it might of been a slower car that caused it. It made me sit up and look that corner over and I didnt like what I saw.. I was there in 04 so they may of made some improvements since then.
Mark you said Dump not me...... I wouldn't of said that. To me Boring and I 've been to alot of different track across this fine country since 2003. Now I might catch crap for this but I never see this track mentioned. But Pueblo Motorsports park is a DUMP!!!!! I couldnt wait to get out of the car!!! Maybe it was the all night ride to get there, after driving 3000 miles all at night for the previous 4 nites. Being dehydrated from Las vegas Motor the day before didnt help.

I'm a big fan of the new Heartland Park. The face lift of the track included a big change in 'alpha zero', there is a lot of runoff and nobody gets airborne there any more. The blend from pit out works great now. There is a huge banked carousel turn that is a blast. The pavement is extremely smooth which is very Camaro friendly..
The picture was taken the last month before renovation. On the old configuration 115mph was as fast as I could go over 'Alpha Zero' and stay in touch with the pavement.
