I think this should be the definitive answer. No?

Thanks a lot guys! I set them today for next week! I have about 150 miles on my new tires and I'm ready for Jennings and then Road Atlanta the following day! Can't wait!

Good deal. BTW, I absolutely love Road Atlanta!!! That track is all kinds of nice. Beware of the long downhill R turn onto the main straight! Its deceiving & will get you if you're not prepared. Enjoy!

Thanks! Road Atlanta is awesome! I've driven it before on a track day but never ridden. I'm excited. Nesba does not do the long downhill right anymore, they stay to the left and you turn at the bottom.

Either way, course is still awesome!
