Actually, the pit out is a different spot, it's not that dangerous.

Ah makes sense now. Thought that was part of the pit pit out lane.

No, there's just a lot of room on the inside of the rumbles. You do not go into the pit out lane at all. In that sense, it's similar to going over the rumbles on the outside of turn 1 at the Glen, except you're on the inside.

Inside at turn 1 is shorter distance and faster on start lap. Clear opportunity to gain advantage vs both/ all lanes of traffic staying to the outside of the curb.

At the Glen turn 1 the extra room is to outside and that is longer distance, typically slower vs staying on track.

Inside of T1 is dangerous and should be banned. First time someone pulled that on me at the beginning of a race he almost caused an accident.

Looking forward to the race.

I agree, all they need to do is put up a row of cones and outlaw it at the first driver's meeting.

Spike strips if you really want to get the message across.

here's an NJMP lap in a gtc5 cup from a few years ago. back when 2,3,4 were sketchy as hell, with sand and no decent runoff.
actually not sure they are that much better these days...but fun fast track. fast fast, and then slow slow.
