I've been making it a weekly thing to go out onto Google Maps and look at the upcoming track and just see what it, and the surrounding area look like from above. I had been thinking about showing on the blog before, but figured anyone could do it. I'm making this one exception, because I found the shape of this track interesting. I didn't realize it was such a strange shape. Not quite an oval, but not quite a tri-oval. It's sorta got a turn 5 thing going on. The surrounding area is interesting, too. There is a bit of life north of the track in the form of Avondale, AZ. But if one of those NASCAR fans gets drunk and picks a southern route, he’s got quite a walk through a mountain range before he hits another paved road.
I’m thinking I might make a link list for all of the track maps. You could use it to find stuff around the track if you’re headed there.
