They really could be. This winter is likely going to be more harsh, that originally forecasted. Heck, we're looking at a fairly big snow/winter weather event this weekend and we normally do not get this until Feb. If that happens several times, allot of frozen precip, and some colder than normal temps., that could be a problem for paving. Asphalt has to have a certain temp., to be put down and also the OAT cannot be too cold, or it won't laydown/set up properly. If they REALLY wanted to do something to improve AMS, return it to it's ORIGINAL configuration! Of course, that will never happen -- smith prefers BORING Charlotte-clone tracks to better configurations, that were unique and provided more charter than his clones!
