Completely serious question: is that track really 200m long? Its not like, 195m long? Because people seem to step on that track and just shed time off their PRs like its going out of style.

oh yeah, definitely 200m.
It's banked to such an extent that it actually takes a lot of time off your race.
it is banked less then the armory. the track is so bouncy i dont think it is even that fast. but yea it is 200 meters.
The track is VERY Fast. The reason why people drop such big pr's there is because of the Bankings. People fly off that last corner in the 200 because of the downhill for people in the outer lanes. Also the tracks banks extends further then many other tracks helping you maintain more speed. For Example at the reggie lewis center the bank disapears before you have even gotten your whole body running straight forcing you to use energy to keep in your lane that over at BU you would not have to do.
No, it is banked more than the NY armory track. It is banked less that Fayetteville, however.
