What's stupid is not going to the track early and checking it out before you run. I ALWAYS arrive very early at a track I've never run on, and talk my way in to inspect the track. They have always let me in, and always let me either ride slowly down the track, or walk it.
There is no excuse for not doing this. When your doing over 150mph, that is not the time to discover a big pot hole, or gravel in the shutdown area.
There used to be something on the internet that would tell you the kind of track, and conditions, somewhere. Dunno where to find it anymore. But, I've raced at probably close to 50 or more different tracks over the years, and I always walk/ride the track before making a run.
