Wanted to have some driver perspective of this layout for the up-coming Mother's day weekend event.
Haven't driven this layout before (done Pocono North) but this one looks "interesting".

Any videos posted and/or on your computers you could post?

I suppose I could go ahead and double-dip plus the Pro-IT (may do that anyway) but that's one expensive weekend but at least I'll have lots of track time to learn things.

Anyone got something I can use?

Thanks!

Everyone says that track sucks, which is why nobody goes. At least you're sure to place well that weekend!

Hahaha!!!!

Well, I appreciate the encouragement Cy.

My goal this year was to do all the races in the NJRRS (and they just happened to coincide with the Pro-IT) so whether the track sucks or not, I at least want to do the best I can.

But your statement can explain why there are so few videos available (coupled with the "loss" of the race/site in 2009 & 2010) so nothing like jumping in the deep end (okay, waist-deep end ) blindfolded!

Anyone else from the peanut gallery feel like replying?

I don't know of any. Kieth verges raced the Viper cup there last year. At least I think it was that configuration.

That was aired on speed channel. Don't know if that can be found somewhere.

It is certainly odd with two Long straights, and only 5 turns in the infield.

Pocono is easy in that configuration in a small bore car like ours.

• Put car in fifth, read newspaper for about a minute. Look for drafting partner.
• Drive through some moderately entertaining squiggly bits.

• Rinse, lather, repeat.

Pocono 2.5 summary:
Not too exciting.
Pack lots of reading material.
Find a buddy to at least make things interesting.

That 45-minute Pro-IT race is going to be BORE-RING!
But I'll get over it.

Lol. Bring your smart phone, give us real-time updates from the front stretch.
