Never have been to Sparta, but spent lots of time in Bowling Green. You know... Corvette factory, Mammoth Caves, etc. but also went to
Beech Bend, which has an interesting history... at the track there, they had NHRA drags, and Corvette sponsored races. The family owned park was also a huge RV/camping destination, and housed the first Camping World store, created by the son of the originator of Beech Bend. Yes,
that Camping World. Small world, eh?
