I wonder if there is anything left of that track. Probably all under houses by now?

I saw some great races there, most notable with AC Cobras blowing

away the competition.

Cotati
Cotati was a 1.9-mile or 2.5-mile airport track on the disused Naval Outer Landing Field Cotati, 45 miles north of San Francisco. It opened in 1957 and was sold for housing development in 1972. No sign of the track remains.

I found this cool resource for racetracks a couple years ago: http://www.na-motorsports.com/Tracks/CA/

Here's a pretty cool site for abandoned airfields; all you wanted to know about Cotati. In one of the areal shots, you can make out the roadcourse.

How about Vaca Valley Raceway? Still some remnants of it I think?

Well heck, that wasn't so hard; here's an areal shot of Vaca Valley. You'll have to zoom in, but it's right in the center.
