Disregard the passing zones, the new track is so wide turns 1,2 & 11 are the only places where passing is even remotely sketchy.

I haven't run my bike on it yet, but I've been there a few times this year for car events, and I have a trackday there on oct 5th



Now, this track I've done a bunch. The strip, the kart/minibike track (center top in the parking lot), and I've run on the roadcourse on the bike when it was first built (far left track)

Nice! Thunderbolt with Tony's Track Days? Enjoy! They'll take good care of ya. Awesome track, too!

We're heading down to Thunderbolt in a few weeks, but unfortunately I won't make the Oct 5th & 6th event Have fun though!

Here's my home track... Turn 1 and 1a have been redesigned & are much tighter now.





And here's what it looks like at speed. I'm on the yellow & black bike on the right edge of the screen during the start.

No no no... You gotta look "beyond" the track, its clearly a goose flapping its wings!

Well, ok maybe it's a little vague, but sideways you can see it sitting, neck out, wings out back.

Pocono is the only track I've ever run. I did the East course. Pavement = terrible at Pocono.
