I grew up not too far from there, but moved long before I got into tracking bikes.

Is there a rough tranisition at a braking point getting everyone's back wheel in the air? Their front susension doesn't look compressed enough to have that happen. And what's up with the apex cones, did they have those out during the race?

i wasn't racing just hanging out - knew some people that were racing..

the back wheel in the air is from the hump.. there is a small straight that leads to the hump that gets the back tire in the air and then you go downhill to a series of esses..
