Lincoln is somewhere around a 1/3 to 3/8 of a mile. Very tight corners. Nice banking. Path Valley is a 1/4 mile track. Very wide with very nice banking. A must see in my opinion. Grandview is a 1/3 mile high banked track. Another must see show. The grove is called the paperclip. Very long straights, tight corners, especially turns 3 and 4, which also doesn't have much banking. A very unique track.

Mechanicsburg good location to get to most tracks in reasonable amount of time except Grandview which would be aabout 2.15 hours.

I measured the tracks listed in my signature with a surveyors wheel. They are mean distance reading if both top and bottom raceable grooves after a night of racing. 


Lincoln 1845 ft/.35 mile T1=118MPH 
Eldora 2287 ft/.43mile T3=135MPH
Port 2716 ft/.51 mile T3=TBD
Grove 2792 ft/.53 mile T3=135MPH
Selinsgrove 2847 ft/.54 mile T1=136MPH

Hook up with Smitty or Rohan or Big Right Rear and sit with those guys, they will give you lots of thought and opinions and generally it will be a fun night, heck the 3 of them are often together, you can't beat that....
