How big is the Track ?
paulkish
old fart
I found this on what may be the track: https://www.route68raceway.com/
and this google map from the web site: https://www.google.com/maps/place/1...1s0x88413b95db1b316f:0x99bc6439bfa5e19f?hl=en
... but I don't see a track in satellite view on google. From the photo's on the site it looks like a big track.

Well since ya have NO info from anyone that might have raced there, for what it's worth a Good 1/5 th mile ( true fifth ) around here for a driver lacking experience would be around a 18 - 62, if the driver is ready to flat foot it as much as possible an maintain as much momentum as possible, a 19 - 64 would be close. With Either pay attention to RPM's early If your to close to target Early rear gear is to tall, Remember a good Track will gain around 400 RPM from Hot Laps to qualifying.
To others, YES I'm aware the ratio's are different there that way for a reason !!
Good Luck !!
