    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.

            This clip of Today interview posted on RRW.com

            Fifteen-year-old Kayla Yaakov made history as the first female to win a race in America’s premiere motorcycle racing championship series and despite several challenges in her career, she is not slowing down in the male-dominated sport.
