Chuck,

I saw the site plan at the banquet. It would be nice if the architect/design firm could turn it into a PDF for Dave so we could get it posted on the website.

Going off of my memory:
The outside of turns 1 & 2 will be raised up about a dozen steps or so and the stands that used to be in that area will be rotated more towards turn 2 with 1 more section being added. This will open up the area more at the concession stands. And you won't be able to see the racetrack from outside the fence anymore.

RV parking (I think this was raised too) along the backstretch. I don't recall seeing any other parking areas but this one.

Since there will be a wall all around the track now you will exit the racing surface off of the backstretch (just past the RV parking area and before turn 3). It looked to be about a 45* angle with walls on both sides. It is only 12' wide. Dave told me that they will be installing the Safer Barrier in that area.

As you exit the track you can make an immediate left to go to the new 30' x 60' tech building (sits outside of turn 3). If you don't need to go to tech you will continue straight and then turn left around the back of the building to head to the pits.

The entrance to the track is going to stay the same (turn 4) but the area between the pits and grandstands will be fenced a little differently. To get into the grandstands you will not be able to walk in the area in front of the pit grandstands (you will have to go behind).
Like I said this is just from memory from something that I saw 2 months ago. So Dave if you see this and I have anything wrong speak up.
