What coolness is within 2 blocks of you?

So here I am driving through the race park near my work, and what did I see?
What's near you?

It's not quite two blocks, but ACG is less than 5 minutes away from my place. And I live next to an airfield. And In-N-Out is really close. And there is a strip club within walking distance.

Sacramento Raceway is a 10 minute drive from where I work, and a new casino is only a 15 minute drive from where I work....

I've got a Cars & Coffee type event that meets a few blocks away from me. There are generally a good number of high end cars every couple weeks...always fun.

My office is in a race park where many NASCAR shops work at. Many days you can hear engines running on dynos, sometimes in more than one location.
One day I met Bobby Allison at the Chik-Fil-A. He is super nice. I've met lots of folks in the racing business and you seem them around town all the time. It's pretty cool if your into that kinda thing.
