"Concrete Jungle"
editI'm curious where this came from, as I've never heard it referred to as such. I just may be out of the loop, however.— Mustang_DVS (talk|contribs) 21:56, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
Track maps
editIs there a map available that shows all three layouts together? It would make the page look a lot cleaner than having all three maps. --Spyder_Monkey (Talk) 03:15, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
- I have yet to find a satellite photo that shows all three tracks, to be able to position and scale them accurately. If someone has one, I'd be happy to use the vector images I've already made to whip up a single park map. — Mustang_DVS (talk|contribs) 21:56, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
- Note that as of 2011, Summit Point has added 3 (?) dirt tracks for RallyX events, plus the exceptional Kart track as well - so really it's up to 7 tracks that have races (and other events) held on them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.236.226.252 (talk) 14:20, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
History of track
editWhile I don't doubt the accuracy of the history section, are there any good sources to verify the information on the history of the track? No sources are cited. Ghostwalk (talk) 01:01, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
Original track, and motorcycles
editThere is no mention of the fact that the track was used from the beginning for motorcycle races- originally with AAMRR, long before WERA, and CCS.
I will dig up verifiable references. Jpg1954 (talk) 23:04, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
Deer Strike Deaths
editIt may be notable that Summit Point has a major Deer population, and has many deer strikes during races a year, and more than one death. A karter died in the championship series there coming out of Turn 9; hit a deer at full speed. Do a YouTube search on "Summit Point Deer" and you will see many examples, the most scary of which are Motorcycles, some of which travel at 160+ MPH. CarlosFlys (talk) 20:18, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
Lets collect known accidents here, and if it gets deemed large enough it can proceed to the main page:
