Default US 41 question
Im looking to go there on sat for some shakedown passes.But they looks like there is bracket racing going on.Is it still worth going or is it impossible to get some passes in.I know this is memorial weekend and tracks seem to be busy on these weekends.I know there hours are from 5pm to 10pm.I just don't wanna waste a trip out there to get 1 pass off.

Saturday night turnout is typically light, that would be your best bet. Sundays have been pretty packed when I have been there, the holiday weekend may make it even worse.

That might be a thought.I wanted to make some horsepower passes and then give a sloppy shot.

saturday nights are perfect. bracket classes get 15 minutes in between heats during this time they run test and tune cars. you should be able to make at least 5 passes. i use to go on staurday nights and would get 10-15 in

I have only been to 41 on sundays, not any of the big holiday weekends though and I always can get lots of runs in. If you hot lap like me you can usually get 20-25 passes in between 9:00 and 12:00
