  • Anyone have insight on the 2013 course?

    From what I can tell, no pylons have been moved. Are they just adjusting the 'calculated' course?
    I know all about the '03 factor, etc., etc...

    BUT...

    Isn't the true course still 7.9107 miles?

    Then I'm curious as to the change on the published distance for this year.

    2012 'calculated' was 8.1034 miles
    now - 2013 'calculated' is 8.0851 miles

    Just for fun, assuming we're merely looking at the numbers, and no physical change for this year...

    Stevo's Q-Time from last year, 59.137

    '12 Calculated Course = 493.299mph
    '13 Calculated Course = 492.185mph
    TRUE Course Length = 481.569mph <- Method used prior to 2003.

    So, it's not a big difference between last years fake length, and this year.. but am curious why?
