If this is the track I think it is, is this track still crappy? I remember back in 00, maybe 01,They wouldn't let me run my turbo Busa (trapped 170ish) because there was not enough shutdown and the end of the track was like a dirt road?

I don't know about bikes but if you run 11.50 or under you need a roll cage. The shutdown is short but they just re-paved the track so it is much better.
