SLB at Buttonwillow - track direction?

mrlegoman · #1 (**permalink**) 10-26-2008, 06:01 PM

The SLB rulebook says track config #13, but does not specifiy the direction. I cannot find the info on the Buttonwillow website either. Can someone please confirm if it is CW or CCW?

Was the RTA event earlier this year a CW or CCW event? Same #13 config?

It has been 13CW at every RTA event I have been to there.

Superlap was also 13CW last year but we ran 13CCW for the STI v Evo shootout the day before Superlap last year.

13CW is the best config for this track IMHO, however, 13CCW is pretty exciting too!

So there is a good chance the NASA or other events prior to the SBL could be going in the opposite direction as the SLB. Super....

There's a practice day?

NASA the weekend before. IIRC they're running CW one day and CCW the other. I know they did that this month and it was really well received.

Nevermind. NASA is running #1 CW the weekend before.

If anyone is there, I'll see them then.
