I was there a couple of weeks ago and I remember at least one car going off the track at turn 3-4. Its pretty much all level now. Plus they expanded the track. I didn't see any boulders in the infield. I know they are pretty excited about adding a mile or so to the length of the track. I imagine it has changed a lot in three years, probably in part to concerns about. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>1Sicgt</b> <br /><small>Member # 714</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2005,4,31,12,36,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Ya, the weather did do its toll on the back straight at reno. but otherwise, the track was very fast, they did get rid of the large rocks in the infield, and filled in the run-offs a bit. I know I had a great time inlight of some electrical issues. We'll have a cool video up later this week, from us being there. We were testing a few new camera set-ups, so new angles with alot more action. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
