I have been to Summit Point and its a nice track to run the 8's on. Here is a short 10 meg .AVI of me on the Summit point track taken from the bridge that goes over the main straight

LINK (will need DIVX )
It's not a great video but you can see what most of the track looks like.

 

I would like to add that Dave and the whole MDA crew do a great job of running a weekend at the track. Family obligations keep me from the labor day weekend but I would be there if i could. I am already planning a June 06 trip to VIR. Hint hint Dave...

 

if only i wasn't going to Vegas for a bachelor party(!!!) over Labor Day weekend....

but then again, i'm probably gonna be, um, 'preoccupied' with 'activities' generally related to bachelor parties

so yeah, i'll just patiently wait for next year's MDA driving events!!!! top notch operation these guys run!!! :D

 

Here is a copy of the track layout I plan on running, yes the banked turn is included. I had to cut down the resolution.

Bang for the track buck, it cannot be beat!!

 

Thanks to all who participated in a fast and safe event. The Shenandoah Circuit is a drivers track that is a hoot to drive at speed. Use of the Skid Pad was also a great learning tool.

Summit Point continues to improve the facility, track and services, so next year should be even better. Dave

 

I beg to differ. The track was not a hoot. It was a freakin' blast! :D
