Popular Mechanics - Automotive News - Car and Truck Blog: Our firsttime at this storied facility, it reminds us most of Watkins Glen--thatis, it's very spread out, and there's a lot of extra family activitiesto sample (air show, helicopter rides, extreme bicycle acrobatics) inaddition to the actual races.
