Turn 4 @ Tri City

[Hoosier_Dirt]

I wish they'd somehow reconfigure that little bit sticking out. Seen way too many cars hit it.

[hoosier race fan]

The last 20-30 feet of the wall curves in where cars enter the track in turn 4 instead of following the natural curve of the corner. It needs to go.

Why should the track change for the drivers? Shouldn't the drivers, drive the track there given. Or should all tracks be the same.

[Barbecueboy]

I agree with you , but that thing is borderline dangerous .......design flaw.

Should be modified a little prior to someone getting hurt IMO.

That's the new generation. They cant use the Marine mantra to compromise, overcome, and adapt. We watched racing an a big old fairground half mile that only had a wall in front of the grandstand. The rest of the track was all trees ! Anybody that complains about these things ever been to Pennsboro with all of its safety enhancements ?

[Barbecueboy]

I agree with you too race ready , people need to adapt.

But....these cars today aren't anywhere near what those cars are that were running pennsboro....the cars and equipment and drivers have advanced so much that it's exposed something that needs addressing .

Think it may be time for the track to adapt to what's grown up around them.

I sometimes forget we're at the " next level ". Maybe cuz I can no longer afford to race at this level. Like many others. Not saying it worse racing.
As many know there's nothing more dangerous than guardrails on a racetrack

[Barbecueboy]

They take these supers so close to the edge of disaster almost every lap these days that things like that burr coming out of 4 just get exposed now versus back in the day .

Agree on the guard rail comment.

As with most things, there should be a compromise discussed.

[rdcllk]

With all drivers. Not just a couple of select drivers

Yessir. Amen to that.

Sure have. That was a nothing more than a money grab with poor racing. And it was a death trap. How’s the racing there these days?

[Raceready]

Both places = NON EXISTANT anymore !!! Of course both places had run ins with a fair board and or local government.

I have one lap of experience on the old 1/2 mile @ Tri-City... in a non-winged sprinter no less. Seemed plenty safe then!!!!

Pennsboro was a sh!thole, and yes it was because of those running it just taking the money and running. Never put any money into it. Though I dunno what you could do these days to make it viable. The layout needs changed, the topography of the land needs changed. You’d be probably better off elsewhere to start over. Though I know they are trying to revive it. Just don’t think it’s viable.
