Kris,
I used to work for a Radio Station here in Las Vegas and had the chance to interview a lot the drivers and riders, early on they all loved the surface and everything else about the Strip at LVMS. I first started to hear about the bump at the 2005 October race and this year of course they are going to re-do the strip (I will try to get some pictures). Bruton Smith will do it right at LVMS, you should see what they are doing to the super speedway, first class all around. Can't wait to see how it is come testing in January.
