Anybody done this race that would care to talk about it? The mbgp.com website has a little bit to say about the course, but it’s a pretty short description.
BTW, if anybody has a set of Zipp 808’s or Reynolds Stratus Whatever’s they need to be field tested, I’ll make the sacrifice and help you out.
Its all about the last corner. Its almost 180 degrees after a high speed run in. I believe Jonas Carney, who won it a few times said, after one of his wins, something like “you have to go into the last corner with the idea that you will crash or win, last year I crashed, this year I won” If you stand by the fence in that corner during the pro 1-2 race you can hear the tires chirping on the pavement as they bank through the turn at speed. Prett scary stuff, but thats why they get the big(laugh) money!
