This is an interesting site, with a lot of history. The roughly roval bit at the bottom is superimposed on the New Hampshire mile paved oval at Loudon, NH. Who remembers the spellbinding race-long duel between Paul Tracy and Nigel Mansell in the 1993 New Hampshire 200? I still have it on tape if anyone wants to see it (again). I’ve never been able to bring myself to tape over it. The whole site is built over an older road circuit known as Bryar Park, and the lop-sided bit at the top (right on the map) traces the line of part of that circuit. Apart from the annual CART 200-mile race, run on the oval, this venue also sees an annual AMA superbike race, on the road circuit shown above. |
