    The track is a scratch build produced by Jarkko “Jka” Kauppi, with cameras from “yoss”. As far as I know this is entirely third-party.

    Note: Although it has different radius turns, this isn't a 'Darlington' clone. It's probably a more fun track, much more wide open, sort of feels like a cross between Darlington and Bristol, yet it is almost 1.5 miles.

    Description:
    Not tough, but still tricky to tame, Brookdale Speedway is certainly unique. It’s egg-shaped configuration means that each turn of the oval is distinctly different, even requiring a different line in 1/2 versus 3/4.

    Wide open, allowing clean side by side racing, this track is a favorite among drivers and fans alike.

    Yes. It's basically Darlington without the top lane or two being substantially higher banked.

    <Snore> Get over it -- they're ovals. Fantasy ovals are just as good as real ovals. Turn left 2 times, turn left 3 times, turn left 4 times... how long is the track? How steep is the banking? How high are the bleachers? Will the sun blind you at a certain time/place in the race? Do the left turns use the same radius? Is there night lighting? How much grip is there? And... that's about all the variables.
