Watkins Glen International Aerial Photo

Watkins Glen International Aerial Photo Another road coarse track here called Watkins Glen International.┬á Photos don’t let you get in that close, and the Bird’s Eye View photos aren’t much to speak of either – But the track – it’s a good one, that’s for sure!!

The Glen reopened on July 7, 1984 (after going bankrupt in 1981), with Al Holbert, Derek Bell and Jim Adams winning the inaugural Camel Continental at the renovated facility. On August 9, 1986, fans witnessed Tim Richmond’s triumph at the return of the NASCAR Winston Cup Series. The Bud at The Glen grew to become New York State’s largest motorsports event and saw some of NASCAR’s finest take the checkered flag including, Martin, Wallace, and in 1998, Jeff Gordon, won his second consecutive Glen race before a record crowd.

Look over at the Official Site for more information or click on the two images for more aerial photos.
