Default Where's the best place to watch the ECHC race?

I would assume T1 will be fun after the start, but is this the corner with the most action? You can see a lot of track from the grandstands at T7, but I can't imagine there will be much passing there.

Will we have access to drive down to T1 like we would any other weekend?

Outside of turn 5 / Inside of turn 4.

I'd love to see the start coming through T1, but will probably sit in the T7 stands.

Go to T5 if you can. It's much more exciting than T7.

Just thinking that you can see that whole area 4-8 from any stands in that area...

I watched USTCC from turn 5, then also watched from turn 7.
I liked turn 7 better. You can see more track at turn 7

Personally I'm going to try and make my way up to the Control/Announcer tower.

turn 3 and turn 10 both have good watching areas, if you don't mind standing up. lots of side by side action in both 3 and 10.

i usually watch in turn 3 for a while and then go down to the chute to watch...
