Last year it was around 200 yards on the front straight. It is layed out in the morning with cones.

With it being an airport and with all the security stuff these days, I would not camp at the track, but that is up to you guys. The base fuel station just down the road is a truck stop so they have parking.

koa.com/campgrounds/terre-haute/exit (11) at the spec fuel location is the Pilot..and 1/4 or 1/2 mile north on the left is a huge Wal Mart parking lot...both are very close to the track

What happens with bad weather? We bolt on some treads and hope for the best. With any luck we will just have clouds to start the day like we did at Whiteland |

Brushed concrete track surface..unless it is monsooning (very likely if anything like the past week or so) you can run slicks on the wet pavement here and no slippage..very high traction track even in the wet!! Be sure to bring a large gatorade bottle or milk jug/windshield washer bottle to make a shield for the air cleaner if it is raining. Link to my FB page with video of the track last season! www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=1449290189546 |

You can get away with slicks on the wet track with a clone, I ran SS22s in the wet, but I'm thinking it will be a lot different with a mod
