Raceway
Number of pit spaces: 15 to 22 Lighting: Fluorescent and incandescent. Pits are well lit. Set-up Rail height: Approximately 0.014" -- Light down force rails allow for "slamming" the chassis in both super stock and polymer classes. Too much drag in Super Stock and rob much needed straight away speed. Gears High gear ratio helps achieve the much needed speed for the large radius curve & long straightaway combination. Shoe tension Lighter than average pick-up shoe tension helps handling without sacrificing power. Background Passkey was modeled after a Denver area Tyco track built by Dennis Shoenberger and Tim Essman and used in the 1991 HOPRA nationals. |
