I want someone to build a 400 meter track with 50 meter banked turns and 150 meter straights.

your a retard

"Oh the Irony" is overused, so I'll just say that you need to go back to 2nd grade.

I legit laughed after the first two.

RETARD: A person born with a mental condition and therefore has to work a million times harder to be able to do simple things (such as learn and communicate) that we take for granted.

YOUR USAGE PROBLEM: Commonly confused in usage with the word "you're," which is a contraction of the words "you are."

If you misuse the word "your," everyone will know that you're a r*tard.

The 400 meter track at the Nippon Aerobics Center in Chiba, Tokyo, has roughly 120 meter straights and 80 meter curves. I've done 10 mile time trials on it a bunch of times, best being 48:33.

The track at Centre College, my alma mater, has 110 meter straights at 90 meter curves.

The track at Heusden, Belgium, where many Americans, including myself, Adam Goucher, Bolota Asmeron, Dan Browne and many others have PR'ed for 5km has long straights, about 105 meters I think.

The Houston Astrodome used to have a meet with a 5 lap/mile banked track. That track was fast. In a Distance Medley once I went out in 54 then 60, then 60 for a 2:54 3/4 mile and would've gone faster if my team had been anywhere close to Villanova, the eventual winner.

A DMR is 1200-400-800-1600, you're the reason you weren't close to 'nova.

Indoor tracks longer than 300m cannot now be built for competition (current oversized tracks like UW/Dempsey are ok, the cut date is 2004, I think). Tracks of 400m or more indoors are not legitimate for any official races, I think -- the only one that I can think of is one in Alaska.

This guy was not talking about indoor track.It think it would be fun to race on it and i think it would be fast.

Would it be faster than a regular track?

In theory it sounds good, but the physics of it just don't work.

Haha! Pwned.

Greene's model suggests perfectly circular would be fastest.

He also has studied banking effects.

Is that from the dictionary? Did you just make that up?

Retard in other language have to do with being slow, it's used in music and other things. You're one of those people who are "slow."

for me personally i would love it if all tracks were like that

Also, I remember a track with about 110 or 120 meter straights at a private school in Shoreline WA. The track is accessible since there isn't a fence around it. (at least there wasn't the last time I ran on it in 2006).
