    It still amazes me that they run professional racing series on that track. That little chicane towards the end is *tight*.

    What was that black car in front of you at the beginning of the video, a Jag XJS?

      Not sure I like that change either, but understand why they did it. Both for safety and to create another passing opportunity. Limerock is a tough track to race on.

            That's the first vid I've seen of the new chicane - not much wiggle room at all, that's for sure! I can see how it is to improve safety, but the lack of room almost seems like the idea has the potential to backfire.

            Limerock sits in some gorgeous scenery - too bad the track itself isn't another 1/2 mile or so longer. Blasting through forest like that would give a real sense of 'going somewhere' as you drove.
