Changes at the Glen

[jakp993]

Gang,

I got the following info about some changes at the Glen from our friend in the Finger Lakes region, Luis Martinez.

Hi Jack,

This Sunday was Opening Day at the Glen, so I took my Finger Lakes Region club and we did 3 parade laps.
 
Going into T1, beginning at the 100 ft brake marker the surface is new, continuing well past track out, and the curbing at the apex is all new, rippled concrete,
 
After the bus stop, all new surface going downhill through the outer loop, T5, and well into the Nascar straight, with new apex curbing.
 
And again, beginning in the braking zone going into the left hander T6 prior to the laces, it's all new, with new curbing, right down through track out.
 
The suface is very fine black top, very smooth.  Gone are the grey or white patches that we used to visualize, so we'll have to find new landmarks.

 Sounds like some nice improvements.  I know several of you have been talking about doing events at the Glen before we run there.  Please let the rest of us know what you encounter.
 
Take care,
Jack
