Mike, I am thinking about using the bowl counterclockwise in Nov. Is that any safer than CW? I'll make a final decision the day of the event, but any advance info's appreciated. We ran it CW w/bowl in January w/no incidents.
Jack are you saying we will use the bowl for sure? Maybe just not sure which direction at this time?
Could you possibly make your decision to use the bowl (regardless or direction) before the early bird entry fee expires?
I ran the bowl CW last time with SDR and thought the only tricky part was the chicane at the end of the straight from the bowl. I was looking forward to running it CCW with PCA next month. CCW would make the chicane much slower/safer. I thought the bowl was one of the track's more interesting features.
Imho balancing the commute/expense/thrill I think a DE at the Q has everything SOW without the bowl can offer.
In case it's not obvious my vote is for CCW with the bowl.
Thanks for all your help with the TT program

Sorry, Mike, but I can't commit to any configuration that I have not run before I actually experience it. Since I kind of wear the safety chair hat at TT events, I'll need to make the final decision on the morning of Nov. 13. Odds favor using the bowl, tho', since I've been looking forward to running this config for a year now. Come on dude.
