I just saw it on TV it's a track somewhere in North or South Carolina, and if I remember the commercial correctly Pinks is going to be the first to do a shootout at the track. What do you guys think? I personally think it's weird as hell being as to I've been around "regular" tracks for about 20 years and it just seems odd to me. I think it could possibly be more dangerous and if more than one car breaks the down time would be horrible. Let's bring out the opinions guys.............

I was thinking the same thing, it's gonna be dangerous. If one of the racers has a problem, he could cause a huge accident involving the others. But it will be interesting seeing a race between 4 cars. I'm gonna check it out, I had never heard of such track, want to see more details about it.

that will increase the risk of danger but exciting at the same time. it will be like the Fast & Furious races. you could even have partners race together for like a bracket race. i cant wait to see that pinks episode or i could drive there its only 4 hours away
That would definitely be interesting to watch. I was looking at the link that Reg provided but I didn't see any pics of 4 lanes...?

The facility looks nice. However, there are a couple of times I wasn't to sure about the guy in the lane next to me. Not sure I want another two lanes to worry about!

Looks like there is a wall between both sets of two so its basically 2 strips next to each other. Its not a completely open interstate highway type of deal here.

+1 on that. I did notice the wall seperating the pair. Very interesting......

I don't know about yall but when I line up in a possible competitive race, I get all jacked up, and that's just with 1 car, with 3 other cars I might damn well have a heart attack. But in all seriousness that's a whole lotta track prep (aka probably real expensive), it's hard enough to concentrate imagine 4 loud cars staging, and there are alot of guys, especially around here, that don't know how to get off the throttle when they're in trouble. So I'll watch it on TV but I think I'll just stick to a good ol 2 lane blacktop for me to actually race on.
