The track layout reminds me alot of the layout at Trackside. Not that it's a bad thing, mind you.

Default TRACKDESIGNER!!! LEAVE IT ALONE!!

DUDE.. you always make your comments and opinions on track layouts.. your Screename says a whole lot!! but then again i have never seen you at a track racing!!! you always mention how your gonna race but never show up!! Its been what 3 years already???

The track layout looks technical enough.. i bet you couldnt make it through the chicane without looking like a pinball smacking da walls!!

Quit drawing and start racing FOOL!!

I announced some heats this morning, fast guys were Sobottka, Flack, Darroch, and Johnson. I think Flack and 'Bot had the fastest single laps.

This race is being run to the minute! Nash can tell you there was a schedule posted yesterday, and the heats start when the schedule says they start. We got done last night exactly when the schedule said. Everybody is ready when it is their turn, nobody arrives to the drivers stand late, they have been great. Really makes it nice to know when you will finish so you can make plans. And the Racers here are the best group I have ever seen, they all love the track (which has custom boards, corners and dots). The dots are screwed into the subfloor, so the track stays put.

I will post some pics when I get time.
