You can use Google maps & use the distance legend at the bottom right corner for distance. I think I provided the link below.

Looking at that overhead photo and doing a little measuring I get a shut that is WAY less than 1320'.....assuming the race track IS 660'....using the 660' track as a reference the shutdown would have to be twice as long as the track to be 1320'....No?

NOT try to cause a shytshow or be an a$$....just trying to get it right..

that you have plenty of shut down to slow your junk! You don't need to pull the chute, no mind swap to a 12' chute Didn't think of that you need to fix your brakes! Laughing very hard

legnth of the shut down.... its kinda small but there



yes of course it has shutdown...and for many, or most, cars they were stopping ok when I
was there.... I needed about 10-20' feet more to stop in time....when Bob said there was 1320' of shutdown there I was confused why I couldn't stop in plenty of time is all....especially driving into the chute...I'll go down and try it again in a few weeks or a month.....if it's still an issue for me I'll just do 60' times....if nothing else I can make sure everything's ok to make the long tow to Vegas....just looking for a place to race

Dave, I think when he says "it's kinda small but there". I believe he means the information about distance is there in the small pic.
