Watkins Glen closed to repair damage to the track

Posted in Uncategorized by Noah on July 1st, 2008

I was going to head up to Watkins glen with the PDA on July 14-15, but The Glen has canceled that and many other events in July. There was apparently some damage to the track surface which needs to be repaired for professional races later in the season.

There is no official word yet as to what area is affected and to what extent the track has been damaged.

  1. IRL is racing there THIS weekend.

  2. Yea, professional racing series tend to get preferential treatment over clubs running track days. This also probably means that the damage is somewhere in the boot, as IRL could run the shorter circuit if that is the case without any trouble.

Have your say
