Cleveland was awesome for the absurdly wide racing surface so you ended up with guys going 7-wide into turn one.

I can't tell if I'd like the Coke Zero 400 to be on the road course at DIS or not. I heavily lean toward no

Not least because 400 miles of the road course in a Cup car would take forever

no. nothing will ever top kansas' roval.



this is seriously a real thing they made.

the real winning move would've been not putting vegas in the chase, keeping new hampshire and using that roval, it's actually good for what it is.

Charlotte is unremarkably midpack in the league table of good to bad roval courses but the new extra-twisty layout will be hilariously unsuited to a NASCAR tank.

I'd put Fontana's rovals near the top as far as layout goes but because half of the infield section is just cones laid out on a car park it just looks so ugly.

Putting in a few actual kerbs and throwing some gravel and grass down would go a long way if anybody there was so inclined.

The only way to have a good roval track is to have a significant portion of it outside of the confines of the oval (New Hampshire) or to design the track/facility with road course considerations in mind from the start. Eurospeedway Lausitz is probably the only track in the world that's got a great road course inside of its oval, because that's how it was built to be.


Lausitzring also has the bonus round option of this absurd monster:
