Since running the course CCW for a trial day, I've had the concern about RACING it that way. What would be turn 2?--the off-camber sweeper at the bottom of the hill--just screams (to me) major offs at the beginning of each race. I guess the other side of the coin is that at least there's no concrete wall to hit.
I do think that the track owners need to do some revision to turn 16 (onto straight, CW). I've seen way, way too many really good drivers lose it there and far too many of them collected damage in the process. Seeing another very experienced driver hit that wall this fall was the clincher, to me--something needs to be done there. (Same weekend, on Friday, a sane, competent driver I've seen at numerous CSCC schools totaled his Mini there.) It's not an issue of whether or not it's challenging--it's an issue of being a very treacherous, unforgiving corner that collects even very experienced, good drivers.
ORP is definitely an interesting, challenging track, but #16 needs some attention (not sure what to do to make the off-camber better for CCW). The work over the years has definitely improved things, but I, for one, would like to see a little more.
