As hard as they have tried to live "up" to the promises the Polytrack people made to them, the track remains a speedy paradise. I know FOR A FACT, that the track had an agreement with the installers who had to come back twice to add "jelly cord" to the track to keep the kickback down. A lot of work went into this surface and it still remains speed favoring.

I just finished reading a Racing Post article about the new Grand Leighs course in England and they concluded the same thing about Polytrack.
