The more forgiving track will make it so that the superhero's like me and my brother can survive a mistake or twelve and as a result we can all have longer races

    hummm... Jason I am wondering how you would have ever seen any of my moves other than when I am lapping you lol

    JK

    Jake- The trying more moves is what worries me, incidents may become multi car rather than individual incidents... Not only will people more "daring" but people will also be avoiding accidents and ending up in them I think.

    The Runoffs this year will be packed with entrants I think... should be interesting!!!

    It will be interesting... the same was said with the Uphill's changes in 2006 (wow, 10 feet more runoff! What a difference two years makes...)-but I don't think banzai moves really increased there. Of course, these new modifications will be much larger and more noticeable.

    The Driving Impressions Pro-IT scheduled for August 2 will be using the original configuration.
    How many lap records will fall?

    Thanks,

    none,

    they are not repaving the old configuration. if anything i am thinking westbend may upset the car when coming off the new pavement onto the old. And also the different pavements may also effect the uphill.
