Welcome to Trackside Travelers
We’re Moani & Micah – the faces behind this blog!
Our motorsports fandom has taken hold over the last couple of years and we’re excited to share our race experiences, track reviews, and practical race-day tips that might be helpful to fellow fans.
We’re also avid travelers and believe that a race experience extends beyond the track and into the hosting destination. On this blog, you’ll find city guides, fun racing-related activities, and itineraries planned around race-day weekends!
Who We Root For
Our current love of racing extends mostly to NASCAR at the moment, with a few turns at Indy Car thrown into the mix. Being based in the Bay Area of California, our home track is Sonoma Raceway, where we attended our first race together in 2012!
We’re Joe Gibbs Racing driver fans at present – Micah was raised as a lifelong Washington Redskins fan so it’s only natural. You can find me (Moani) cheering for Denny Hamlin in the #11 and Micah cheering for Chase Briscoe in the #19 (taking over for his former favorite driver, Martin Truex, Jr.).
We hope this space inspires you to explore new tracks, new cities, and new ways to experience race weekends!
