Springport is 18 degrees in the corners and back straight. The front straight is flat (5 degrees or less).
I believe that Spartan is 9 degrees in the corners and flat in the straights. I am less sure about this than Springport. |

Tomorrow afternoon at Spartan, I'll go around the track and get degree measurements at all the various points and let you know what I find. I'll measure the straightaways and the top and bottom of all four corners.

I measured the banking at Spartan and here's what I came up with:
Start/Finish line: Inside 2 degrees, Outside 2 degrees
Turn 1: Inside 5 degrees, Outside 5 degrees
Between turns 1 and 2: Inside 8 degrees, Outside 8 degrees
Turn 2: Inside 5 degrees, Outside 5 degrees
Backstretch halfway: Inside 4 degrees, Outside 6 degrees
Turn 3: Inside 5 degrees, Outside 6 degrees
Between turns 3 and 4: Inside 7 degrees, Outside 8 degrees
Turn 4: Inside 4 degrees, Outside 6 degrees
