GOOGLE BEFORE YOU QUESTION
A centripetal force (from Latin centrum "center" and petere "to seek") is a force that makes a body follow a curved path. Its direction is always orthogonal to the motion of the body and towards the fixed point of the instantaneous center of curvature of the path.

They did the Daytona track a few years ago- it was impressive. IIRC, they use standard paving machines, but kind of hang them off cables. That pic looks like precast forms, though.

I'm just wondering if the refrigerator considers that level- I'm going with yes 🙂

It's likely the contractor used curved vertical forms, the same way vertical concrete pours have commonly been done since the Roman Empire.

Not Cool! I drove our Hurricane around the track at Bristol, and 1 lap was all I could stand! Its a long way down from the inside window, and having it tipped way up on one side is not the best feeling in a top-heavy vehicle!

Are you sure? I can see passenger up front and it is called a Luxury Travel Bus

Either way that is cool.
