Putnam - one of my favorite tracks in the US. Not a huge track by any stretch at only about 2 miles...but just such a great rhythmic track with virtually ZERO things to contact if you get it wrong. Fun, fun track.

agree, Putnam is a fun track! it puts a lot of wear into the left side tires

I've heard that their attempt at following the country club model has made it tough for DEs/club racing though.

Putnam is a great little track.
Before the track surface became too worn, I thought it was one of the best test tracks in the country.
Needs repaving , surface is worn too smooth.

Totally agree. Putnam was where I started racing in PCA. Too many distractions over the last several years have kept me away. Can't wait to get back.
