Great angle. Good illustration of how much the cars are bouncing/undulating before they even roll onto the curbing. I've never felt confident on the bleeding edge when going through T10.

World Challenge Touring Car at Portland 2005. Pobst won it. Here's a link to a summary: http://www.world-challenge.com/news/story.php?story=191

This is from my favorite place to watch what was my favorite spot on the track before it was further ruined (berm & curb flattened) to meet the requirements of a race that never happened. It had been previously partially ruined (by the outside wall) to meet the requirements of a race that no longer happens. And don't get me started on which turn is Turn-1.

This was (and still is though to a lesser extent) the single best place on the track to see who can really drive and who can't. Most of the WCTC field can/could pretty good. On that day I recall Eric Curran was fastest of the RTR cars thru there. And as so often happened, Randy Pobst was just a little faster.

Scott, who is glad I got to drive it so much before it was ruined...especially driving Turn-7 like the Dukes of Hazzard...none of the WCTC drivers was "maximizing" it... ... this isn't quite maximized either, but it's the best video I've got: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmV3Q...ature=youtu.be

Those cars were hauling behind and still in control in that area.
Thanks for sharing Scott
