VIR track changes

That explains a lot

 

They don't. My post is not about distance of VIR wall, rather general about cars and walls.
I prefer no walls at all

 

Putting a wall really far away or not having a wall also cuts down the chance of a perpendicular impact . Creating the problem by adding a wall and then rationalizing it needs to be closer to cut down on perpendicular impacts is a weird progression of decisions.

 

VIR and Jersey no longer have any management or employees in common. Just like VIR and Pittsburgh.

 

Someone at vir must have bought stock in Armco because they sure are buying a lot of it they are adding more now.

 

i thought I did read after NJMP declared bankruptcy the VIR group stepped away from NJMP

 

VIR just posted armco additions and changes to T14.

 

So I guess they are going the way of the Ozark track. Miles and miles of Armco, when they had all these extra run off room already

 

I had a Nissan Quest hit the wall right at my station (Start/Finish) at Loudon during Lemons. They spent Saturday night swapping in a new sub frame for the suspension. While they were at it, when they were done, the only bodywork left above the belt line were the A pillars and windshield.

 

Might be a surprise to folks this coming weekend.

 

Not much of it bothers me except for turn 3. You are pointed at the new barrier on corner entry leaned over and on full throttle and then have to scrub speed and brake on the side of the tire. It bothered me on the track walk and I don’t like it on the sighting lap. They put a lot of air fence there so that’s good, but the runoff is a bit tight there now.

If I was on a faster bike, other sections might bother me, but turn 3 is not moving in a safer direction for riders IMO.

 

No MotoAmerica in 2023.

But they are updating pitlane and the condos

 

First of all, I'm not retired. Second, you're a jerk.

 

Damn, late much?
