Is there a form of racing that involves a circuit of left and right turns (hairpins, esses, swoops and bends)? It could be made on parking lots with traffic cones. Thanks, John |

Nope, Every race I have ever seen is on a straight out one way and no way back. Maybe you should go there now Rope "John McKean" <jmckean_clip@rogers.com> wrote in message news:YiEab.64825$DZ.39873@news04.blo...ble.rogers.com... > Is there a form of racing that involves a circuit of left and right turns (hairpins, esses, swoops > and bends)?
