I have been looking forward to Sonoma Race weekend for so many reasons this year, but mostly because I have been JONESING hardcore for a race (in person). In general NASCAR fans in the west kind of get the short end of the stick race wise. There is Phoenix, Las Vegas, and Fontana- which unfortunately for fans (and fortunately for race teams no doubt) are all kind of close together. Then we have a long wait until late June for Sonoma (and then again another long wait until Fall Phoenix).
