Is Nelsons track surface any smoother than it used to be? Only one I ever experienced that would blur my vision with the complement of bumps. But I have never driven dirt.
The American Endurance Racing season has been released from pit lane. While the group’s Watkins Glen event was canceled, it has added a new event: June 6-7 at Ohio’s Nelson Ledges Road Course.
From the AER Facebook page: “On Saturday morning we will have open track HPDE for those registered to race then qualifying in the afternoon. Sunday will feature a nine hour race. Cost will be $1250/team.”
Also in AER news, it has partnered with Blipshift to deliver branded face masks.

It's very nice

They repaved it a couple years ago and added apex curbing. The toilets flush now, the rickety tech shed is no more, and the armco barrier between the front straight and pit lane has just been replaced with concrete.
I ran a track day there last year and it was a blast. It's still a rustic facility, but nothing like "old" Nelson Ledges. I'm going for a track day on Saturday, and am really excited.
