It's a flat, rough track with a lot of character and it requires you to move around so you can find a place where your truck likes to run. It's a track that demands a lot out of the drivers and crews to really get the truck adjusted, because it's rough and hard to get ahold of, so finding the right setup to make your truck handle is really a chore.
