A Future View of Racing

It’s cool, maybe 65 and breezy, but up this high the coolness was being able to look down – below his feet – to see cars brake-shuttering at the end of the downhill before slamming into the loop’s high-banked turn as they swirl, drift and struggle for the slingshot effect onto the uphill straight. The racetrack includes an elevated moving sidewalk, running above and inside the track. He steps off the raised treadmill, still high over the action to catch, from atop, pit crews wrestling with a tire change.

Of course, there’s no such elevated, escalator style, racetrack viewing – yet – where you can watch the action from above or ride a conveyor belt for various over-look points. If there was, spectators would ride airport-style, people-mover conveyor belts (side-by-side – one for each direction). Onlookers could step off at most any point to watch from various locations with crossovers to go-the-other-way. A traditional grandstand, start/finish line and pit area would remain.

The race over, he grabs a bite at one of the many food kiosks that line the elevated walkway adjacent to the moving sidewalks, visually checks his own ride in the parking lot and takes the escalator to ground level.
