How many passing zones did they have? And what run group were you in?

The weather forecast is rain next Friday.

I was with ncrc yesterday - they have totally different rules from HOD. They pretty much don't follow or enforce any rules (!).

HOD is much better - but I don't know how many passing zones they're gunna have.

I think that depends on which run group you'll be running in.

Of course it does but the west side of Thunder Hill is so tight that "professional" drivers have balked about not being able to pass much. There are two straightaways I can think of and the rest are tight turns.

I'm just curious if any other places were deemed passable given that it's largely a single file piece of the track.

they're running the 3 mile and 5 mile this week.

the 3 mile (assuming its the same configuration I ran) gets you the front straight -back straight and we even passed through turns 7,8 and 10.

Now - ncrc is a lot less stringent than hod - so they may reduce that somewhat.
