Introduction

Just re-done, Rockingham is quite fun to drive. Combine the oval with the infield for some tricky corners. Actually, not re-done, so much as re-opened for club use. Short, but fun, there aren't many experiences like having to look 'up' at your track out point going around the 23 degree banking in NASCAR 1 & 2. There are also more than a few hard things to hit if things go wrong... so the track deserves respect. Caretakers have added new sand traps, softwalls, and armco in key places around the infield, and they do a respectable job of keeping the track clear of debris. Access to garages is definately a plus in extreme temps.
