The starting line was not new, but the next slab was. It was not real good out there. It was pretty cold and had rained so there were some tough moments for faster cars. I don' think this will be a problem since they have run on the track a few weeks now. It normally is pretty good at St. Louis. The Nova could drive through a mudpuddle. A 3 inch stroke is pretty forgiving as far as traction is concerned.

The biggest think about St.Louis is to bring plenty of gas for your scooter since we will be pitted in the circle track. Also, look for high ground. The rain really runs through the pits.
