    I've got a picture of the maxton airport which strip do you run on?

    Re: Maxton Question

    It's the track that runs directly from top to bottom. The start line is near the bottom. Notice that there's a slight dogleg near the beginning, and another one near the top of the screen - that's the short turn-out, about 0.3mi from the finish line. All together, there's 1.9 miles of paving. Over the winter, we had a bunch of new paving laid, making the track in the best shape since we've had it to race on - can't tell in the pic if it was taken before or after the paving. Wish we could have done the whole track, but there's only so much money available.

    Hope that helps
    Dan

                    Hey Dan, are there classes for cars with no cages and factory seat belts?

                      The classes are the same roll cage or not. The only thing roll cage and harnesses chane is your tech speed.

                        So I could drive my stockish Monte Carlo there and make some passes just the way it is? I'm thinking it would go 120-130 mph.

                            You would be limited to 125.

                            Depending on you seatbelt and seat configuration Keith might let you go 135 tops. You will need SA/M2000 helemet or better and long pants/shirt. Then just the normal vehicle saftey checks.

                              Keith already answered, but I was going to say that most folks prefer their butts. Good idea to bring a chair, as the attendance of the bleachers has been a bit spotty. Keith - did we get our own bleachers? Such a thing was rumored.
