I registered for Summit on May 12 and September 1-2 with TPM. I have wanted to hit this track for two seasons and now I can finally get there. Looking forward to finally getting to ride there.

shenandoah has close walls...they go away after a while and the track is very tight and not fast at all. Some people love it some hate it....it is a rough ride on a bigger bike

If youve never been to summit. The main track is the one you want to ride.

I also like the jefferson course...

I'll be bringing the TLR and the TZ250, so at least I will have a choice for which bike to run there. Is this course something like VIR Patriot?

Is that the one with the concrete section throughout the whole turn? I just saw a video clip that GinoE posted showing a huge concrete patch. How's the traction there? Anyone have a link for video footage from a motorcycle, the cars video's are ok, but I would rather see it from a bike's perspective.
thanks

There is no concrete in 10. Turn 10 is where Mack "fall down, go boom".

Here is video from a bike.

That doesn't look very safe. Does Jefferson suck or what? Like is it worth it?
