Back cover of Jan SportsCar is bugging me!

[Bildon]

OK I kept looking at the back cover of the Jan. issue of SportsCar because I like Touring Cars and because I like to figure out what track is in a photo even if I can only see a bit of it. It's like a hobby of mine.

So anyway my first impression was that PD was kickin up some dust while whistling through T5 at Road Atlanta... BTDT .... But wait, there are no trees on the outside of T5.

So, I'm thinking, green grass, SWC race, hmmm LRP uphill ? no, Mosport ? no, ...hmm it's a steep hill...

Is this Road Atlanta but with Honda Inc. marketing dept touching it up? The more I look at it, the more i think it's a Photo-chop.

Check out the perfect grass right to the edge of the racing surface.... :119:

Cute saying "From the rest of the world's vantage point".

When I saw it, it looked to me it was taken at VIR going the wrong way up Rollercoaster.

I figured it out!
It's Mid Ohio!

All I needed was to see this sliver of bridge!
Man that's been bugging me for days

Good job Bill. You'll sleep better tonight.

Mark, do you have some race footage to confirm the analysis by Bill ?
