Joyridin,

D42 did have four lanes, but one side was for 13.0 and slower while the "good side" was for quicker cars. I went down the slow side once and it was scary, above 85-90MPH. Bumps and whoop-dee-dos. Best thing was, they could run about twice as many cars in a shorter amount of time. There was just a guard rail between the two tracks and when something really fast was running, they'd hold back the slower lane, just in case.
BTW, D42 is alive again. Completely re-done. I think the tower and starting line is now at the opposite end, all new track, facilities, etc. May have to go, just for grins, when I 'm in Ohio for my wife's class reunion, in June, I think. I haunted that place in the late 60's, early 70's, with my "Black Sabbath" Chevy Nova.
