I haven't raced there before and was thinking of going down there in 2 weeks for the regional.
Questions...
Is it is difficult track to learn? I was going to do the Friday test day.
Anybody willing to share video links that I can watch?
What is a competitive time in ITA/
Any pet friendly hotels nearby?
Thanks All
Abhi
When I first raced there, I ran 1:40. By the end of the weekend, I was ~1 sec off the track record, which is at 1:34.4 by James Price. And then I crashed chasing the lead, Ed York in a miata, late apexing with my FWD on turn 3, the back straight away. Different cars, different apexes.
I think the track is easy to learn. I enjoying running there, albeit my car/I do well there.
Videos from last year:

Competitive times in ITA would be 1:35's, 1:36 flat, no more.

I like both NJMP tracks quite a bit.
Here's a video from the JRRC last fall: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=my22...JcwcvxLgwBh6kQ
I'll probably go back for it again this year.
Mickey, looks like you had the advantage on top end HP/lb, he had the advantage on torque/lb. you had the better line, but why did you follow him into the dirt?
Thanks Mickey and Jeff for sharing.
I ended up going down to one of their member days and ran 3 twenty minutes sessions. Also got to do a track walk with Aaron Povoledo.
I only got down to the high 1:37s
The right hander past the condos is giving me trouble.
Hopefully I will figure it out on the (very expensive) Friday test day.
Thanks again

The right-hander after the villas is a throw-away; the important bit is setting up to get on the power ASAP for the straight that follows (and full-throttle all the way to T1).
Thea and I are in Atlantic City that Friday night so I'll be racing there that weekend and sharing one of the villa condos with Craig Swinehart*. So we'll see you there...

* We have a spare room in the villa with two (double? twin?) beds if anyone is interested in sharing costs...
Tired? Too focused/fixated on his bumper? Probably a little of both.Quote:
