    How much banking does Lincoln have?  Video makes it look pretty flat, byut it's hard to tell if that's just an optical illusion based on where the camera is, perhaps?



I'm sure the Banking is just fine as they have had great crowds since they re opened plus charging a bit more than usual.

 The banking on the track, compared to what?  Its not flat, I would have to call it semi banked as compared to to Eldora or Tri State

I had to read that 1st sentence 4 or 5 times before it made any sense whatsoever! :)

Don’t know what degree banking Lincoln has but will say after watching the WoO races from Haubstadt via dirtvision over the weekend and having attended numerous races at Lincoln in person the two tracks share similar characteristics IMO.Both have tight turns with Haubstadt appearing to have slightly higher banking in 1 and 2 and Lincoln having longer straight stretches. Both tracks seem to have a slight rise in elevation going into turn 1 and a corresponding slight drop in elevation coming off turn 2. Turns 3 and 4 appear relatively flat at both tracks. Just an observation , but then my almost 70 year old eyes could be failing me. 

Side note, watching The Edge (Monteith) charge toward the front from deep in the pack alone is worth the price of admission. This past week his run from p23 to p2 while ripping the top was super entertaining. As well as he runs at Lincoln,It’s difficult for me to believe he hasn’t won an outlaw race at the Pigeon Hills track yet in his career.

Monteith usually makes it interesting, especially at Lincoln

I'm also amazed he's never beaten the Oultaws there...
