I'm sure they've been doing a LOT of grinding on Pratt Street since last year. Also, I would imagine that there will be some sort of cover over the tracks to smooth that out quite a bit for the weekend.
No chicane on the front straight should get speeds up 10-15-mph heading into Turn 1, and that heavier braking, coupled with less accordion effect coming on to the straight, should aid overtaking noticeably. It looks like the old Turn 5/6 flick is gone, so going into the complex before passing the pits should be much more apt as an overtaking zone. Also, that left/right they had last year was criticized by a lot of people as being a very hazardous place.
