Took a Radical (#1351) to Ozarks International Raceway in central Missouri last weekend. For those who have not been, it is an exceptional track, only a few years old, and one of my favorite in the country. Tremendous elevation changes, great flow, and very fast in the right hands (my hands are considerably slower; this video is my son who is silly quick).
This track should be on your short list.
Fantastic!!.... are they water tanks at each marshal/flag point??
Yes, empty water tanks for shade for the corner folks! And note the extended LED light boards that extend over the track into the line of sight. Such a great solution, especially on a busy track with a lot of blind corners and huge elevation changes.
And agree, not a lot of room for error, with a couple spots that have a huge pucker factor. And certainly one of the most technical tracks in the US. Has a Nurburgring vibe, just without the straights. 35mph orientation laps in a dually are thrilling, so full chat laps in a Radical are pretty special.
I will admit I was nowhere near the lap time of my son— he was flying despite being his first time at Ozarks and his second time in a Radical. Oh, to be young and skilled and brave!
We met two families at the Ridge Motorsports Park a couple months back that were travelling around the US doing track days, and they said the Ozarks track is a "Must Do" for anyone who can venture out there.
Cheers
