Understanding the passing lane
Normally I would say, "Not my circus, Not my monkee" as to the ruckus or lack thereof about the removal of the passing lane from Yonkers. Why should I care? My patent on it has long been expired......it now and for quite some time has been in the public domain. Yet I realize despite its spread to over 100 tracks on three continents over the last two decades no one really understands its function and how it can be adjusted .....its width, its length....to meet the needs of the racing at the track it is in......or, if they do they say nothing........not even the great driver, John Campbell evidences an understanding of it to my mind anyway. I will wait to see if I shuould discuss it......if anyone has interest within our moribund sport. Richard A. Herbert, M.D.
