    RCCA is running this weekend, July 19-20 at Thompson Int Speedway in CT. Banked 5/8 mile oval.

    RCCA is offering a real drivers challenge to master road courses as well as ovals. See if you have the same skills that made the names Foyt and Andretti legendary.

    Yes, you worry about the walls. Well every track has a wall, and a bridge pylon in the case of Lime Rock. If not to race, come up and watch.

    I've run this event before and it is a ton of fun. I highly recommend it.

    A bridge pylon on a straight behind armco compares exactly how to concrete walls surrounding 100mph+ banked turns? Since the spectator bridge has been at Lime Rock exactly 0 cars have contacted the support pylons.Just FYI.
