Since this was not really a place I have ever raced before, I figured it would be great opportunity to see what types of surfaces and conditions others are racing in. It proved to be quite the experience; the track was freshly built out of what I would call farm soil. The track was in the country next to a field that presumably was unpacked and never scene chemicals to hold it together.
