Here's the shutdown length of most national event tracks. It was compiled by Bret Kepner in 2008. Also, Seattle did add a sand trap last year. The road coarse runs along the fence so they had to add it about 100 feet or so closer to the starting line.

Maybe the fact it's 3 years old is the culprit but thought all tracks had to have sand traps now (look at Norwalk) because of the Scott Kalitta tragedy (plus others). In any case people who've never run Pomona or Fontana before had better check their stuff before running and waste no time hitting the binders when crossing the line...looking for a win light, looking at oil pressure, etc is all secondary. Having run Gainesville several times it definitely spoils you.

You are probably correct. That is most likely the reason Seattle added one last year.
