Yeah, they changed it last year?? Now it's in the middle of turn two on the right with a hole in the fence.
As Greg said, it's easy to arm chair quarterback this but the important aspect is to make it a learning experience.
I know the perfect spot for it would be drivers right, further up the track. Just as you are tracking out of 10 it would be right in your line of sight............ but then you have to put up protection for the workers (yes, I've been out in those weeds before)....... and then make it easily movable or get the NASCAR boy's panties in a bunch.
Tough situation. I'm glad no one was hurt. And it sucks that it took away from what looked like an awesome race. It did look fun!! Too bad ITR/ITS are dead...........
