      That was a fun watch.
      Tough to beat such a jumped start and the full-on contact while racing.
      Great looking track too with the elevation changes. Are there enough run-off areas to hold major events?

          Hey Steve, this is 3rd year having Moto America events at the track.
          The start chicane is a bit dodgy, taken many racers out, but apparently the HP of Superbikes is too much for the front straight w/o the chicane.

              Congratulation to Kayla's Father, who's paying for her racing education.
