The above thread from the Corvette Forums talks about specific events being canceled right after the Watkins Glen National due to pavement issues. Anybody know what the issues are?
Specifically quoted from the thread:
"I had an Audi event in three weeks canceled due to track damage from a 6 hour race. Anyone know what happened to the track that it will take a couple of weeks to repair? "

"I was heading up for the NASA event July 14th-15th, I see that it was cancelled as well. " |
"The word we got was there was damage in the esses(most likely from low ground clearance??) and repairs have to be done before NASCAR and IRL get there.When were they scheduled to be there anyway??

"The IRL is at Watkins on 7/6 and NASCAR is at Watkins on 8/12. I have plans to be running there on 7/9 and 7/10. Any info would be appreciated. I am assuming everything would be good to go with IRL there this weekend. "
"Yep. I was going to be running at TrackMasters mid-month and it was cancelled. All events 7/14-7/24 are. I am still going down 7/9-10 as well with BMW."
"Can't be too bad if IRL is there this weekend with their speed. The esses would not be my favorite area to have a grip problem
