We are traveling to Gateway in three weeks and need some basic information to have a starting point for setup.  We run Heavy Honda, Heavy 160 and Heavy 'AA'.  Anyone know the track, been to the track or have a reference point they can share?  Is it similar to any of the other midwest tracks?

The Gateway event will be on a temporary track like we did for the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and "Little Hoosier 100" races.

Thanks.  Can you tell me if it will be identical/similar dimensionally to either track?

JT,  are you looking for gearing for those classes or chassis setup? We dont run those classes but I am sure I could do some checking around and get you some information.

Bake,  here is the information that I was given for the Rookie class. Gear 34/29. Run locked up with 3.25 - 3.5 inches of stagger. Maybe take a little tilt out of the car. Hoosier A35 tires on the right side. Good Luck
