Pickup Pavement Pounders Long Track Results in Spokane
Starting line is a 2 lane under track configuration that I designed. It works very well and all heats started smoothly.
Track starts with 3 ft. ramp raised up 18 inches down to a 5 ft. kicker track raised up 12 in and a 16 ft. flat straight away.
Finish line is from the 6 lane race track. Today it was very fast.
Temperature 38F degrees and spitting rain. This is on my covered back porch so all was dry there.
