I was over a couple weeks and looked at the track .. I'm just guessing
but I'd say 6.91 to 7.05 if the track has fast corners mabey turn 8200
with that gear in a latemodel ??mabey a 13 sec lap ??? come on guys
what da you think..? no secrets everyone will figure it out in one practice
anyhow lets just see whos the best guesser. he he ...

Guessing 7.00 would be close in SS.
Late-Model will be in the 6's.
One late-Model driver ran OLR with his 311 gear accidentally last year and finished a strong 2nd.
probably about the same size as OLR but it is 60 feet wide. Some drivers sware it's bigger.

I don't know. The track to me looks more like a minature Martinsville Speedway. Long straight aways and tight flat turns. I noticed alot of cars spinning tires coming off the turns. Like maybe too much gear and not getting any bite? I would guess super street depending on tranny, 5.13-6.00 somewhere in there.

Oh yeah, we used to run a 4.11-4.56 at the old Oak Level before they made it a little bigger and ran a 3 speed in 2nd gear. Won 5 races with that combo back 94.

well I wound up with a 7.04 and busting a 6600 chip hard
not much mtr here but I put a 7000 chip in for quailifying
busted it not hard though,.. 15.4 lap car a touch tight
car wt 2262 I'm guessing some others running a 7.29 turing
8200 spinning some with a 14.8 lap time ??? late model
SS ??? same gear in the low 7's turn 7,000 sounds good
anyway bring what ya got it will work 6.97 to 7.29 ???
