Calabogie live lap video

Found this at another site. I see quite a few trackdays on the schedule for 2007. It's over 2mins to do a fast lap. Maybe sometime in the future the org can have a trackday there. Brand new pavement all the way around probably wouldn't hurt anyones feelings. Originally I read about issues with placement of some barriers but I think with all the bike trackdays scheduled already they have no problem moving them around or maybe already have.
Here's the link.

504 miles. I need a really thorough report, guys..

Is that a concrete wall on the left there at the beginning?

Looks fun but a lot of stuff looks to close in. Of course on board cams distort distance pretty bad so I would have to see it in person.

It looks incredible. Same designer as Barber and Miller. Too bad it's 2,500 miles from home.

Too Bad Whip. But hey, look on the bright side, it's got to closer to me.

So Many tracks so little time. Looks great. If I go off the track on my pine cone colored bike I'll be lost in the woods never to be seen again.

Yeah the Team Promotion guys cant stop talking about it. I think somewhere on the message board there is a report about it (I know thats useless if you're not a member)

During the build, the track seemed a little tight as far as run off. That wall isnt in a terribly bad spot but it doesnt seem to have a real purpose there either. Otherwise it looks like a better track than my closest option.

I still hope to be able to check it out this year.

Very cool. The multi-apex compound corners remind me a lot of Miller.
