Is Albany the best airport to fly into to get there? I've never been to NY State at all and would love to go to Saratoga at some point.

Cajun-

Its pretty much your only choice unless you have your own plane. Its very convenient too. 30 miles from Saratoga race track, and you only have to take one road to get there, I-87. Get on I-87 at exit 4, head north, get off exit 14 and Saratoga race track is on your left about 1/2 mile once you get off the exit.

Cajun yes. Fly into Albany. Then either Gander or myself or a team effort will insure you get up to town from there and back down for flight. I'm going down to pick up a friend of lansdon's who is arriving at the airport today as a matter of fact.
If Tim and I were able to get Kev up here and back to the airport safe and sound, we can handle anything!!!

Thanks, Mike. I may try and head up there next month... perhaps the 9th and 10th. I'm looking into it.

Cajun- Come on Labor Day weekend if you can. Its very mellow and the racing is still pretty great. I have a wedding on Saturday but can go on Sunday & Monday that weekend.

LOL! My wife's best friend. Our 5th and last (thank god) wedding of this year. At least its local and I can make the track on Sunday & the last day.

Cant believe I am missing the Forego and the Woodward for a wedding, but I guess it could be a worse weekend.

Shiat, we'll be in Virginia the last weekend of August, so I don't think I can push another trip that soon. I don't know why I thought there was was racing that weekend, but I guess I was thinking of Belmont. Damn...

Nope, no nascar for me that weekend. We're just going up to look at some horse farms (warmblood) and visit some of my friend's family.
