The road course isn't much but we shall see what the 2.3 mile course entails.
All the action starts on Thursday this week.
Stay tuned

Looking forward!

Isn't it like 3 turns and an oval? hehe

I've been to that track before they added the 'road course'.

I wonder where people are going to put their RVs and stuff since that's where they built their 'road course' hehe.

Good luck! Some oval tracks have nice infield RC setups... others not so much.

Hope you guys can carry the momentum from RA and get another solid result.

There are 6 turns! Probably one of the least inspired Roval's out there but it's always fun to try something new.

Find someone to setup wacky NASCAR alignment. That's a lot of miles on banking.

There's really only 1 and a half right turns...

It's hard to tell in the pic but I think they are only on the banking for 1 actual turn, the other 2 banked turns they are on the flat side.

We run down the back stretch and through Nascar 3 and 4 around the tri oval and then down onto the "road course".
One more practice session tmrw and then the green at 3.
The race should be interesting... The banking is fun... Def have to get on the wheel going through 3/4 but the RC is unreal around the banking....but I have even been on new tires on it yet.
The crew battled some things that happen to the car at 150 ....
Worked on chassis a lot in practice today..
Bryan did a great job once again in qualifying.
The entire team is working hard together...it could get interesting

Stay tuned

Care to share what these things are? Just a little curious.

Also good luck tomorrow.
