Hi All, for me the best place is the Glen Motor Inn, north of town a 
couple miles. They are open through October; I just talked with them.

It may not be in its former glory, but loads of tradition and 
atmosphere. Good food.

Full disclosure: I've known Vic, the owner, since 1970. Used to race a 
Can Am car; still has it.

He has some great stories. Ask him about the '63 and '64 USGP and two 
guys named Clark and Chapman. Or some guy maned Garner. Wonderful 
stories and he is not known for making stuff up. He was there and has 
all the memories. And photos.

Cheers, Bill

PS: I know the shortcut to the track.
