True, but you aren't allowed to see what's going on for perhaps 3/4 of it during an event, unless you're someone like me who has a press pass. Once they bulldoze some trails into the back end it'll be a pretty good spectator track, but that hasn't been done yet. The best spot to see action is a ridge above 12b, from where you can see from corners 11 through 15. There are a couple of flat areas above corner 17 that give a pretty good view, but last year the officials were waving people off of one of them.

At Shannonville you can see everything but about 2 corners, while just sitting in the stands. It's a toss-up; do you want to see all the action, or do you want a more interesting track?
