Is this the same track the V8 Supercars are going to be running on? Seemed like an ok track, big long straights, some nice turns...

I was in Newark about 4 months ago staying just near the vent shaft from the tunnel to New York. Around the corner from the Path train entrance.

Although if you have been or will be watching the F1, it is hardly smooth. It appears so, and one would think so with it being so new, but it is really bumpy in major high speed braking areas right on the racing line. Corners 1,2,3,4 combo have been causing F1 cars to understeer and the final turn before the straight cambers away half way throu corner which has caused many cars to run wide coming onto home straight. Entertaining track? Yes, should make for alot of passing. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/13030-v8-supercars/#findComment-168853 Share on other sites More sharing options...
