Ok, I was out for a private test day yesterday at Grattan. The repave of turns 5-11 is awesome. I only got to drive my truck around, but you can tell there is more grip there than before. Now I have to go.
See you there

Entry going in the mail this weekend. Tires will be here Tuesday. Busted-ass trailer will be fixed by Tuesday... All coming together!!! Can't wait to get there and have a few! I believe my wife is coming with me, so might be doing the hotel thing, but I can still have fun and she can drive to the hotel!

No they didn't repave anything. I ran the national there last week.
I also walked the track to check out the new surface.
They put down a sealer from turn 5 to after the uphill esses.
The good news is the sealed surface is nice and smooth, but it didn't seem to hurt the grip level in the rain.
The bad news is...the blind turn-in for the uphill esse is tricky now since the old cracks in the pavement that you used to use as a reference are now covered up.
