The Danbury Fair / Racearena Webpage... This is an open group for those who wish to reminisce about old times at the Danbury Fair and the Danbury Fair Speedway's Racearena. Please feel free to post stories and photos, and discuss things of interest to Racearena or Fair fans. And, don't forget to check out the photo galleries or "albums." of all your favorite drivers! You can use the following link or just navigate downward and there is a menu with links to your favorite drivers already in alphabetical order, facebook doesn't do that. I do that.

 feeds | Welcome... NEW WEBSITE....AT MEWE/Facebook Clone / Racearena.US
(we are migrating over there).
We have a nice 'n easy url; http://racearena.us, or simply type "racearena.us" into your browser and you'll get here.
Photos of all the Racearena drivers have been uploaded in approximately 200 organized driver/fair photo galleries . Click GALLERIES on top right of page or on the right and they will appear in an nice 'n easy alphabetized list. We are the most complete/PERMANENT Danbury Fair & Racearena archive on the 'net and if we ain't, tell us why but send in more pictures for us to post first! Just remember, the PORTAL page is our homebase.
This is a work in progress, and is a way to get the archives up, available, complete as possible, and permanent. The website is only as good as the contributions from it's members. This is not the typical ONE owner/contributor website. So please, feel free to join and UPLOAD Danbury Fair and Racearena pictures! To keep this thing alive and complete as possible we need volunteers uploading photos that only they may have!
Nothing costs money. It's all free. There's nothing stopping you! Just hit the post button on the top right of the page and upload your stuff! If you keep the stuff to yourself or just post it on facebook it will be lost forever...
 is not the answer. After a period of time the pictures wind up in no order and virtually unavailable without hours spent hunting. Comments and info winds up lost and pushed back into a far away jungle of disorganized comments and photo streams. Here, the photo galleries are alphabetized and easily accessed by clicking a link on top of the page. With a just a little bit of effort, this thing has been done right, thoroughly and permanently.
Please, feel free to sign up, join, post stories, and upload pictures here of anything you believe is of interest to Fair or Racearena fans. Post new photos of drivers in the comment sections of your driver in the Driver Photo GALLERIES. If you have a driver that does not have a gallery yet, then just post it in the forum here . For new drivers please put "[Gallery, Driver]" in the title so it can be searched. If this is too complicated, then just post it and I will take care of it for you.
The layout is fairly simple. All the links you need are on top of the page. Have fun. This site has everything facebook has and more. Time to move beyond facebook! Let's stop making Zuck even richer! Anyone can join, participate, upload photos, write articles or comments or contribute.
This website is permanent and will be here forever. If anything happens to the stored photos, I have backed everything up so it can be reconstituted.
Remember, there are no rules except 312ci max and all races must be complete by 12:00pm curfew.
