The new layout looks nice.

Here is a great picture showing the new track layout compared to the old layout. New layout is in blue, the old is in red..

Interesting, that's like an entirely different track. Should get to some crazy speeds on those straights and good passing on the hairpins.

Yeah, they will get those speeds up and will make it interesting going into that hairpin turn there..

I hope there is some major fencing between the two-way traffic on the long straight - that is pretty close to have cars going nearly 200 mph in opposite directions.....

I was wondering the same thing. I imagine that the track designers are way ahead of us, but it certainly is a safety issue that stands out.
