There are many elements of the design and construction at Earlville that are well thought out and the burnout box is one of them. As Lyn noted above the metal grating over the pit before driving into the water captures lots of the pebbles and gravel that the slicks pick up in the pits. After each class is complete one of the workers power washes that metal plate and hoses all the debris into that pit under the grate. I counted four or five workers in each lane between the Burn out box and starting line.
