PBIR Report & Night Photo

[Ed Fernandez]

Just a few observations.The track surface looks a little narrow,not much room if you get out of what would seem to be a narrow groove.And there are stands only on the right side of the track?
Like I said,not complaining ,just observations of what the picture shows.
I think a wall,instead of a fence, in front of the stands would be a good idea also.Lawyers would have a field day if a car went over the wall and through the fence.

Ed actually the track is the same width as before, but the walls are a bit taller. What surprised me is they sodded the area between the right wall and fence as it's actually wide enough for a pit vehicle access road. The reason for missing left stands is due to the proximity of the road course to the drag strip. Stands could probably be located there, but my guess would be depending on spectator turnout during future events, and would have to be off limits during a simultaneous drag and road course schedule. Like I mentioned I ran there Sunday and didn't feel boxed in at all. One main difference is the walls extending beyond the finish line, unlike before. BTW found a really cool video someone did from the race. Check out the 50's style flag start on one pair.
