1) In Florida, I live 8.1 miles from a famous international race track and most winters can determine—by ear—what schedule of racing is in progress by the exhaust noises being carried on the breeze.
(Tire-testing, open-wheel racers, motorcycles, those very-distinctive Porsche sounds, SCCA/Club-racing).
2) I go home for lunch, and know—by exhausts—when
my group—of four groups—is scheduled, and allow enough time to reappear at the racetrack.
3) Most importantly, eleven years ago, a racetrack was being considered among Tamworth's hills.
I drove over, appeared before the Board—spoke of my racing credentials
and objected—though our residence is in distant Wolfeboro!
