    Hello everyone and Happy New Year:

    Which is the shortest track you guys race on and what are the times for ITA cars?

    We here race mostly at PISP aka El Tuque




    Thanks,

    Lime Rock Park 1.53 Miles ITA lap times in the front are generally 1:02's - 1:03's


    New Hampshire International Speedway 1.6 Miles. ITA Lap times without the south chicane in the front are generally 1:15's - 1:16's
    Not the best map...


    Hope it is interesting

    A new entry in the "short track" sweepstakes is the road course at the Nashville Superspeedway, which had its first SCCA event last lLabor Day. It uses the front and back straights, the accel lanes and a few squiggles, which add up to 1.4 miles. I believe the ITA pole was about a 1:12.

    Bremerton raceway

    Well guys here in El Tuque the ITA cars are in the 1:32secs at best. The track is very challenging and not fast at all. .The straightaway is perhaps a little over a žmi long and with two hairpins in corners #2 and #5 the track benefits a lot of torque and very aggressive driving maintaining momentum at all cost.

    This year AGT(American GT series) will stop twice in their 2007 championship.

    With the loss of Arizona Motorsports Park (after a 2 short life ) we specialize in short tracks in Arizona. Firebird main track is 1.6 miles, and Phoenix Int'l Raceway (PIR-S) is 1.51. Add in Firebird East at 1.2 miles and you have our 3 tracks with a total length that is less than the Autobahn track in Illinois.
