Glen - Well, it's the Glen!!!

Always exciting to run a new track though, both of you post some pics/vids when you return!
I get that sense too... been reviewing a lot of YT vids of the North Course and the layout looks almost too simple/short. A good time seems to be 1:00-1:03 and I see what you're talking about the bump. When you transition to and from the infield, I see cars getting a little hop. The only reason the hop doesn't seem too bad though is because it seems like you're entering a braking zone (as you transition back onto the Nascar bank) so you're not carrying that much speed.

Any tips on reference points once you get on the oval? Hard to imagine "seeing through the turn" when its such a long banked straight... but what should we be aiming for before we get back on the infield?
