Entry Lists
Whenever the topic of "track limits" comes up and how to enforce it, I like to point to VIR. Aside from a several relatively small aprons added to a few turns, the track dictates the limits of the track.
I wish more facilities would do that. Go off course down the Rollercoaster or Hog Pen? Yeah, you're taking the scenic route down a sea of grass.
I love that.
