I just watched this video of the event in the LS Challenger... WTF were they thinking with that chicane? Ok, a left right and done to slow you down, but that was ridiculous.

Was that for all groups? If that is what I have to look forward to at these events, I'll humbly decline to attend.

Had to be for any group that was being timed and that group was definitely scored/timed.
I thought the laps looked awfully slow compared to a typical Laguna lap. Now I see why... Not sure of the reasoning or why it was required.
If they do something this drastic in Texas, I will be rethinking my trip to Daytona and probably only run Road America and MIS. Not traveling very far to run that bs.

Well since it was in Commifornia I think the chicane was to keep noise down. They were sound testing and one of the USCA guys decided a chicane was the answer.
Mopar to the bone!!!

Let's take it easy. It really was not that big of a deal. This was their first event so I am sure there are something's to look at. Easily the best run event I have ever been too. I believe this situation will only be at Laguna .

Maybe they wanted it to look/feel like one of the Bondurant "autocross" events in Forza5... If so, I think they pulled it off...
