here is another one from Saturday.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZyQutO9hTg

the track was run clockwise (backwards) to slow the cars down and we didn't make use of the entire track. I had a great time though. All together we got 4 - 10 min sessions for FREE! Can't beat free track time.

I have to give it to the organizers of the event. they spent all day out in the heat so we could enjoy the track. During the drivers meeting in the morning they said that the track is going to be very affordable for events. Looking forward to whats in store.

I talked to one of the guys that was there and said it was like a fast Auto-x course with lots of WALL's. He didnt like it.

It looked like after the long straight you make a nice right hander and head down another straight. I did not notice any wall, barrier or signicant run off area here. If someone looses it after that turn they could end up in on coming traffic , with someone on the front straight.

Anyone else see this?
