Could be, Fall-Line has a large facility there.

So here is the video of the entire qualification run, which includes when the mustang clipped me on the passenger rear door/quarter panel. It's a long video and the best laps are the last few.

Randy Pobst
SCCA Sports Car Magazine - November 2013

"So, the next time you are entering a corner, and you can see the front wheel or more of the car ahead of you, know that he can no longer see you without looking in the mirror, and successful drivers don’t look in the mirror when they enter the corner, they look toward the apex. So also know this: That driver is going to turn for that apex, and you are going to quickly run out of room. Get out of the way and give the driver ahead the corner. He or she earned it by getting there ahead of you."

This.. the Mustang driver should have known better, he is a seasoned driver.
