Super Serious Track Guides | Summit Point Jefferson Circuit (iRacing) 

This track is probably the result of someone saying "Hey esses are fun and hairpins are good for overtaking, why not slap them together and create a racetrack out of it!"

This circuit is why I’m exclusively an oval racer now.

My first encounter with this circuit was with the reverse layout, and that to me, will forever be the correct and true version of this circuit.

Fun Fact: North America's oldest car review TV show Motorweek (which has been on the air for almost 45 years) used to use this track (in its full nearly 5 kilometer configuration) as a testing facility back in the 80's and early 90's.

I actually really like Jefferson, in both directions, its like an autocross course where you race other cars.

To me, Summit Point's layouts are the epitome of "fun to drive does not mean fun to race". In real life it's an important facility to that region of the US both currently and historically, but most cars on iRacing have outgrown even the main track.

when southpawracer uploads a super serious track guide, my day got better

Shenandoah is actually incredibly fun. I’ve been around it several times and it’s absolutely incredible. It’s seriously a roller coaster

Summit Point, the not summit of racing. Always lovely to see a SST pop up here :) I wonder what it would be like if Rhys "had" to do Targa Florio or the Isle of Man TT. We'd be here for hours... ;p 6:36 - The... what? Shanendoah.. river? Blue Ridge... mountains?! COUNTRY ROADS, TAKE ME HO- Sorry sorry, spaced out there for a moment.

As a West Virginian, I love to see Summit Point.

4:15 iykyk southpaw, that line is like purgatory.

Babe wake up, new super serious track guide

I guess I am the only person that likes Jefferson. It’s a nice track that’s simple to drive and hard to master. Personally a pretty fun track to chase a better lap imo

Keep doing yah thing. Sick content.

Congratulations for 20k!

I can’t believe you only have 20k subs must’ve subbed around 10k much love from UK 🇬🇧

This is the best track to get one of this videos! You haven't lived until you've driven a Nascar truck or a Supercar around here in either direction.

I love this kind of Videos you deserve more followers tbh

This Jefferson reverse is basically the mini flat Barbagallo Raceway

I have a soft spot for this circuit, as I raced and won my first ever iRacing race here a couple of years ago. There’s probably some heavy rose-tinting going on though, as I can’t recall ever driving it since that week

Hey, Jefferson is great! Makes for some great racing in the Vees in either direction.

wating for a super serious track guides: Aytron Senna (Caruaru). that one is a blast to play (especially the flat out chincane on the straight)

Oh what a treat to wake up to. Love these videos .. thanks

The Alibaba reference got me good. Congrats on 20k!

Another great video! Greetings from Brazil

Ah man I had a really good experience racing Miatas at Jefferson for my first week of iRacing a year or so ago - this is funny to see the opposite opinion!

Oh my god what a way to start the day. Thank you SouthPaw!

Once again the "Fastest click of the West"!

Just in time for everyone to hate it in the MX5s this week, Atleast you didn't have to drive it in the bloody dark!

Finally

Can't get enough of those

LFG RHYS

That Shenandoah circuit has a lot of similarities from above to Deep Forest Raceway...

my lad with the incredibly niche public transport references B)

You should do one of these on the original layout that was used for the Molson Indy Vancouver from 1987 until 1998 when it was redesigned and lengthened too loop around Science World instead of BC Place, its short tight and narrow with lots of heavy breaking zones after relatively fast straights and a front straight that was curved to the left. Turn 10 became infamous for being the site where Willy T Ribbs deliberately ran over and killed a track worker who was trying to clean up debris after a crash during the 1990 edition of the "Race Round The Place",

IRL i love jefferson and shenendoah for trackcross... racing jefferson on iracing is just hell for 20 laps

Jefferson Circuit ftw!

At least it's better than the Mandurah line on a Saturday night

Haha great guide! The #JustPerthThings is confirming prejudiced we have about people from the west…

This track looks better as a kart track than a car track.

such a fun track though. great vid

Currently using a late apex T1 (trail brake at your own peril) and a triangle-shaped T14.

Welp, I'm like 2 hours from their now, time to go try the Jefferson and cry

I do know. I do.

Nice

I wrote a comment nearly 3 weeks ago that he could not stop this awesome series ... thank you SPR :) PS: If i could make a wish ... Linas Monthlery with the corners in middle of a "Steilkurve" ... -> watch?v=gA1Vm9JqWXA

You should do a NASCAR oval for April Fool's. Maybe Darlington so there's still something to explain. And assuming that there's a Darlington mod for Assetto Corsa

Shenandoah looks like it actually has a good layout hidden in it

Pal we're gonna throw hands over Jefferson Reverse

Now please do sochi, and try to hate it a lot

You should do Ningbo International circuit in China

That Armadale line is bad news, if you ever visit perth, don’t use it. Thank me later :)

5:03 POV: You are a Twitter user

haha why's this so funny to me

I think it's a perfectly good track, but it's mostly suitable to slower cars. Even slower than the MX-5 which is most often raced on it in iRacing. Something like the Legends would be more suitable for it IMHO.

I don't remember ever racing this circuit. Either that or I've just blocked the memory.

what’s the background music you use

nice

i dont get it how they make it 55 in formula vee. i cant take corners like them, will just slide off

It would've been funny if he used the ARCA car for the video. Since it was on the official schedule last week. Lol It's one of my least favorite tracks.

pp

Jefferson Circuit looks like a shitter and distorted version of barbagallo raceway ngl mate
