That turn from Warm Springs to Brown (right hander if you are going to Lemans) has a bunch of very loose gravel. Very slippery.

I saw it, saw that no cars were along Brown, and got an itty bitty teeny bit sidways.... (did not cross over to oncoming)

As I was leaving, Brown left onto Warm Springs, it's quite clear that someone who didn't know about the gravel (or didn't check for no cars) could easily slide into the person sitting at the stop.

SO BE CAREFUL.

BTW... yeay new track. My first time so I was figuring out all the lines. Could only get 20.03 around noon.

 

20.03 is very fast. I'm at a 21.64

 

that place is a rip

 

Not if you buy a frequent driver card and use their specials.

 

20.03 is pretty fast, I'm not sure what my time was because I was there for the i-club meet ($10 for 10 laps!)

Oh and I had a helmet cam, If you don't know what the new layout is...

The new layout is pretty sweet

(I didn't double post...)

 

im at 20.88... damn, i wanna dip into the 19's so badly.. haha...

 

My friend got a 19.8 and his friend set the record at 18.82.

I did my 20.03 with no braking as I think that's the fastest way for this track and these karts. But I'm also 6' and 195 lbs and leaning helps, especially on the big sweeper in front of the pits. I think with some more practice I can break 19's as I still had areas to smooth out.

 

the only reason i go to LeMans is to get sideways in the gravel...then i just live vicariously watching others having all the fun, and walk out with $50 in my wallet.

 

Huh?

 

It's not just LMK, all indoor places are a rip.

I paid $40 dollars for 5 hours of open track time at Infineon's karting center yesterday.

 

Did you use your own kart?
