I'm always curious how tracks are modified from ovals to road courses. Scares the heck out of me racing so close to a wall.
There is only one real spot you can run into issues with the wall. The course was well laid out and the cones were placed strategically so it would keep you away from the guardrails.

The one spot where folks had trouble (including me) was the end of the course which had a small kink at the end to avoid too high of speed. It ended up getting the cars loose though since your corner carving on a straight banked surface. One nice 4th gen camaro kissed the wall as he spun out and took out the metal stairway. Others were lucky and just got a some grass on their wheels and brownies in their pants. On my first run, I got big time loose at that part and panic steered successfully....although I did smack the wiper stalk in the process. I'm pretty confident I have in-car footage of that.... haha.
