Default Pocono infield paving

Pocono has new paving in the infield. I'll miss catching air over the transition.

As far as I understand (and that ain't much) its the same. But the 3" transition hump from main course to infield is gone, smooth.

I read that there are a few events where the configuration is completely different.

During the Summer and Fall months we had been told of this work to be done to the infield, but it was mentioned that a new and faster infield was in the works to attract the faster venues such as the ALMS and Grand Am cars and such.
