I grew up in this time and haveseen this track grow from the beginning.
The first reaces in Watkins took place on the streets of our town. That
was the track! It's great seeing Nascar races here. I'm so proud of the
way our track has improved. A road track like Watkins is the best way to
access the skill of the drivers.

How did they determine MOV to be exactly 0.46 miles?

Interesting remark from Johnny Allen regarding this race:
"...Watkins Glen, we finished fifth, and had to run the track backwards
because the cars were set up to go left and you couldn't change the fuel
pick up. You'd keep runnin' out of gas. The big problem was no escape
roads. For really tough turns that were downhill, well, you're goin' the
wrong way. The escape road is the other way. It made it a really fun,
exciting race."
