Track Features:
Outer walls are 15 feet high and have 100 DP. The track surface is paved
with no banking, and the track infield is grass-covered (considered an off
road surface). Overall track length is .33 of a mile. Grandstand capacity
is 10,000. Track defenses consist of 8 universally turreted VMGs located
along the track.
Track Rules:
No direct weapons fire until one lap is completed. Limited dropped weapons
in dueltrack events and no dropped weapons in racing events. Dueltrack events
allowone or two spaces worth of dropped weapons. In this case such weapons
are used after the fifth turn (from a standing start). Racing events use
rolling starts at 60 mph with no dropped weapons allowed. Direct fire weapons
are limited by division.
Starting positions are determined by top speed for AADA
sanctioned events. The fastest qualifier gets pole position.
