The newly paved area – which focused on the entrance to bus stop used in the 12-turn, 3.56-mile road course layout – was completed in time for an IMSA test this week at the track.
“The paving project was a result of collaboration between DIS, NASCAR, and drivers to ensure the racing integrity of the chicane is preserved for all sanctioning bodies who race at DIS, while also recognizing safety is a constantly evolving process at our tracks,” said a statement provided to Motorsport.com.
