Actually, Road Atlanta calls it turn 12, not 11.

How about the Irish Pub at the Chateau? I loved their fish and chips. Guiness wasn't bad either IIRC

Sweet, turn 11 is marked in a different spot on each map. And yet when you look on their website & their current track map, there is no turn 11.

I know, that's why I was sort of cracking up. The in-DUH-vidual who taught me RA (who posts here) named T11 exactly where it is marked in the 2nd picture, hence my nomenclature as well.

Due to the current economic crisis, and as a way to cut track costs, turn 11 has been removed.

However, I believe it's reinclusion is a line item in the $800,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 stimulus bill.

I'm in for the race. Practicing this weekend with BMW.

Two questions: When do we open the smack talk thread, and will it be any fun without Larry?

Ahh, so this is the smack talk thread! Love it.

I can do sub 140's on the ice in the pictures above! That's because it speeds me up when I am spinning bacwards down 11 or 12 or whatever.
