For the following two weeks, all events will run only on the right side of the race track from the exit of T11 until the apex of T1......to allow the pavement to cure.
.....and if the experiment works, car clubs will run only on the right side of the entire race track while motorcycle clubs utilize the left side of the track but counter-clockwise. Simultaneously.

CVR is still on. We have more passing zones for all drivers so we will not be affected very much; Potomac only had 3 passing zones for beginners where we had 8 (but will now have 7).

Jim,

I can't wait to run with you guys. I heard great things from friends who ran at your advanced event last year!

Enough free drinks at Seneca Lodge and people will say anything. Don't believe any of it.

Seems like waste of track time. Maybe Niagara can extend their Advanced Only June 23 - 24 event a day or two. I know a number of people that would sign up for an extra day.
