Petite Le Mans was stopped for more than an hour while the surface was patched mid-race.

SO much force transferred to the left side wheels when turning and launching the inside right wheels...

Reminds me of the time years ago at Summit Point....huge pothole right at the exit of T3. Of course, they didn't patch it; just surrounded it with 4 orange cones

BTW - Summit Point is getting a repave this Spring.

ProCoach

Chris told me that back at the Jefferson 500.

Been through half a dozen repaves at that place since 1987. Cool!

This one is needed, I hope they fix the bump near the apex in Turn 9.

Of course this also means you lose all your references in the track.

References or not, if it turns out anything like the Glen's did it'll be (to quote Tony the Tiger) GRRRRREAT!!

If a driver doesn't have enough "above track level" and "lateral to track" landmarks, they're not moving their eyes enough!

Ritter v4.0

I was there and wondered what they will do this week permanent repair-wise (if anything) to T3. There's really no other line. If it's not your left side on the patch with the right up on the gators, it's the right side on the patch but then you aren't set up correctly for T4.

Guess I'll find out this w/e- racing with NASA.

p.s. signature pic below shows the spot in question.

Looks like you got it right in your pictures, if everyone would turn hard enough to get their inside tires to lift then no one would even hit the pothole

PLNewman

Fixed.

I'll be driving on this on Friday. My driving is so awesome I hope it holds for the NASA race the next day!
