Pueblo Motorsports Park's (Colorado) road course also shares the road course with the drag strip.

There is an bumpiness (white knuckles) in the transition of surfaces across the launch area from the 1/4 mile track but as long as you dont do anything crazy in the turn that introduces you into the start of the 1/4 track you're ok. The concrete wall however has been "grazed" a few times.

On the map linked you can see turn 10 which goes into the beginning of the 1/4 mile drag strip.

PMI ROAD COURSE

we are going to convert the dragstrip to a road course. so the water box will be going away most likely. we will still keep the timing lights and have a way to put the tree in. so this way we can still do some drag events. but the track will mostly be used for road racing.

Ya I came thru there the morning after that Rig crashed on the I-10 carrying costic acid. I was stuck on the 10 at 5am for a hour or so, maybe you heard something about it? I usually have something going on in Texas once a year, I'll let you know if I'm headed that way.
