Default NJMP Thunderbolt Chicanes

Does PCA and/or SCCA run one or both chicanes for the Thunderbolt circuit for the club races?

It's my understanding that the PCA CR in late August will not run the chicane.

I did a DE last week at Thunderbolt and when the question about the race came up in the drivers meeting, the answer was definitley "No Chicane".

Not a fan of the chicane.

I've only run the track once and not on the chicane so can't comment, but it seems like there aren't going to be a lot of places to pass on that track without the chicane. Basically T1, T5 and maybe Octopus entry.
