Technical Advisory Committee Chris Huggins Posted January 16, 2020 Technical Advisory Committee Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 (edited) You should consider doing the second loop for improved safety. The second loop would do two things. 1. Slow speeds at the transition onto the banking that killed 2 cars last year by near head-ons into the wall 2. slow terminal velocity by reducing initial velocity on the oval.

Administrators Bill Strong Posted January 16, 2020 Author Administrators Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 Yes, I know I drew the roval entrance incorrectly on 2 of them. waiting for a call back from Chisek. then have to get with chelsey as it is her race. UPDATE: this is the config we will race. the 2nd inner loop is not an option per the track. I will redo the art Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakks Posted January 16, 2020 Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 I think even running the loop that I brought up and Bill confirmed will lower the speed coming back onto the oval. Our team had no issues with the transition and made quite a few passes there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's in my top 5 list of tracks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The banking in 3 and 4 is kinda cool. The rest is meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
