back straight away instead of a front!

step up drop at the end of the straight to begin.
drops you into a sweet little single 90 to the left and a single that jumps you right in to a right hand 45
the front stretch is a table top
small triple
switch back
turnstyle

across th loop you go into a baked 180
then into a switch back
double
180
a HUGE!!!!!! table top ( super smooth in mod and easy on the stocks and scts)

180 and on the straight away!!!!

see you there

It's a very fun lay-out..

IB..

See if you put Brian's description and Torry's pictures together it explains it better, but I did get hung up in the "baked 180"

the lay out was quite fun to run on! the jumps are all easy to make and there were plenty of spots to pass... the lanes are all at least 9 feet wide so it will be great for 1/8th scale!

the back straight makes the track seem long! there is a kicker at the end of the straight so a person needs to be nice a cautious or they will blow wide and allow the guy behind him to cut to the inseide!

Should be a blast!

The new layout looks great. So is the track open for practice tommorow (Wed)? Just want to confirm before I drive down from the Great White North.
