I finally saw some pictures of the Lauritz ring...it's big flat
tri-oval...more in the line of what could be termed a Roval.(somewhat
similar to Pocono) Cart's next event is there....I Wonder how the Germans
will take to the event?
Perhaps I'll make Rockingham tho :-)

I always thought that turn 2 was a copy of a turn from Indy...
Also, wasn't there some relationship between USAC and Pocono that prevented
the CART cars from running there?

However: Important information for the Scandinavians on this
newsgroup.
Swedish SVT1 will broadcast both the european races from 13:30 to
16:00 live, commercial free, without Janne Tromark. It will the best
CART coverage of the year. So for the lucky bastards who will attend,
set your videorecorders.
