Knoxville Late Model Nationals

Rather see 100 laps. How do you change that after you have already sold tickets for 100 laps.

It was a wise decision. Fuel stops are not good.

Maybe a dumb question but why can't they run 100 laps there? They just did it at Eldora. Is the track that much bigger?

The track has to be 1/2 on the inside. It's large and in charge!

Post 17 question:

Very large track & on the throttle the entire time. A couple of years ago- many were running out of fuel because of the capacity of the fuel cells. They talked about cutting the laps after that - but implemented the fuel stops.

Measuring Knoxville on Google Maps each straightaway and turn is approx. 100 ft. longer than Eldora. So 4 x 100 ft. x 100 laps = 40,000 more ft or approx. 7.5 miles. Thus 100 laps at Knoxville is approx. 7.5 more miles than 100 laps at Eldora.

[BTExpress]

Traffic barriers (sometimes called ARMCO barriers) also known in North America as guardrails.
