Located in upstate NY at the southern tip of lake Seneca, Watkins Glen truly is the Home of US road racing. Watkins Glen is by far the fastest track in the North East. The slowest turn is 65mph and many are taken at 80-90 mph (at least for street based race cars) ALMS and open wheel cars will post much higher speeds. Even fast street based race cars will attain speeds of 140-150mph on the back straight. With these speeds & huge elevation changes, brakes take a beating at this track!
