Re: Is Zmax a downhill track or is it just a weird layout?
Yes the track does have a downhill angle to it and the burnouts you do go uphill. I can't remember to % but, I think it's 3% downhill

I live here in Concord and watched the track being built. The stands rise up and out as you go down track for a better view for those sitting in the stands.

Re: Is Zmax a downhill track or is it just a weird layout?
Bruton Smith checked with NHRA as to the maximum allowable 'downhill' grade they allowed, and the track was built to that specification.
