Re: Roebling Road to get a repave next year! (SPiFF)
I visited RR for the first time last weekend during an SCCA double national and it seemed like an interesting facility but the one common thread was that it was a tire eater that desperately needed repaving. Let's hope this actually happens, I look forward to racing there one day as I have family about 35 miles away. Visit the in-laws and race at the same time...works for me.

Re: (smokin rubber)
That would be great if they would repave it!!! That would be so great. A foot bridge across the track would be nice too so you could get over the track while a race is going on.
I'll never forget watching the Kent's from the paddock, helpless watching their race start and they weren't allowed across the track. At least if there was a foot bridge they (and others) could have made it over to the paddock.

Not if it's done right. My recommendation is to get whatever formulation VIR used, repave it in November, and shut it down for 3 months to allow it to cure.
Lap records will be destroyed....

It was originally supposed to have the Road Atlanta formulation. However, they neglected to put binder in and track started coming up the first race weekend. I don't think RA has been repaved except where they changed the track

Re: Re: (o-man)
Considering I don't know it any other way, am I crazy to think RRR will lose a part of its identity w/ a smooth, non-abrasive, non-wearing, uniform surface? Strikes me that heavier (esp. fwd) cars will benefit a lot more from this than lighter cars. Don't get me wrong, I like the idea of a less wearing surface on tires, just curious if the track in its current state will be missed. Personally, I'd prefer the money went in to the bathrooms and an under/over pass to get in/out of the track during races. JMO

Well I would prefer it went to a nice smooth (slippery is fine too!) track surface. You know, just to level the playing field a little more...

We really have to figure out who to talk to so we can get that thing taken off the books. I really think he had that RX3 chained to a GT1 car!
