Best website or book for track dimensions?

[joeydb]

Hi guys - does anybody know of real measurement data for the race tracks? Where the poles are, finish line, how wide or tight the turns are, etc?

Basically I am looking for overhead diagrams of the major tracks, with distances (approximate) listed.

Thanks,

Joe

Joe,

The American Racing Manual has most of what you're looking for in terms of track diagrams/layouts, stretch distance, etc.

Thanks Steve. I actually do have a couple of American Racing Manuals from just a couple of years ago. I hadn't checked them yet but they probably do have the numbers I am interested in.
