I think that is the Kart track, I hope we are using the full course. The Kart track is only about a mile long. The ad mentions the 2.25 road course, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed it is not the Kart track.

See you boys there at 8:00am



In this pic you see the road course, and in the center middle of the pic is the Kart track, which is only 9/10ths of a mile. Dragstrip in in the center, where those black lines are.

Mborner's picture is definitely of the shorter go-kart track, which I know quite well, having autocrossed on it on several occasions.

Oh crap!! LOL, I've never been there, it looked like the road course. Is this the track?



It doesn't look like much of a road course. How do you loop the track? Do they close down the drag strip and use it as a straight-away?

I'm guessing they aren't coming north because it's winter. Damn you snow! I want to drive it. The dyno drive at the Taste of Lexus night edition wasn't enough to satisfy me.

Yep, your picture is turn 2-6 or the Northern half of the track.

The drag strip is not part of the road course.

Here is my best MS Paint attempt. I was never good at "Operation". Your above pic is the right hand side of the track.



There are a couple of different configurations, but that is the main circuit. I imagine they may use the softer "kink" options on turn one and on the back stretch.

Here is a d/l map http://racemoroso.com/images/stories...course_map.png

Too bad they don't let us give the go-kart track a run too!

The last paragraph of my original article on top of this thread is the answer we have so far.

I'm too late to sign-up, what are the chances they will let me be a passenger or even let me in?
