"Mini E" raceway takes form

Here's a shot of the kart track at Eagle Raceway, from their Facebook page.

If anyone has a shot of the new 1/4 mile at I-80 (NRP), please send it to me (email is in the site info on the right).

So on Saturday nights we'll have to jump the berm to weigh our cars?

Interesting...unless you go in on the backstretch and go off the track at the turn three pit exit. we'll wait and see. I admit I envisioned using the front stretch and not a separate one.

Wondering where the flagman will go?

Ahhh... The mention of a berm takes me back to the good ol days when we had one on the big track, instead of the super (un)cool tractor tires...

Jason,
My understanding is that you will enter and leave the scale area on the back stretch. No vehicles (race or safety) are to drive on the small track. The reason for this is, they do not want any groves put in the small track. Not sure I like the placement...takes away a lot of escape room in the infield (both car and person).

I miss the berm on the track as well. Give the low groove back.
