With the turns banked at 17 degrees and the straights at 6 degrees this place is going to be scary fast. I spoke to someone yesterday and there will be no foam blocks or safer barrier in the corners. Can't wait for the opener.

Hopefully that will be added quickly after opening.

That will be a great Track but I guess it will be the end of Chemung what a shame.

Might try to get to that Sunday July race, after Monadnock's race the night before.
Hope it doesn't hurt Chemung. Chemung is still my favorite track in upstate NY.
