How exactly do they repave racetracks?

[kantonburg]

Take Daytona Speedway. They have 70 degree turns. How/what do they use to pave the tracks?

Got some links for info?

Oh and before someone mentions it I know they have never repaved Daytona. I just want to know how they would since normal paving machinery would not work.

Why wouldn't normal repaving machinery work? 70 degrees doesn't seem like much (normal streets regularly have 90 degree turns, a.k.a. intersections).

scratch that idea....late night idea

Just to clarify: 70 degrees is the angle the roadway makes with the ground. A normal road is at zero degrees. A wall would be 90 degrees.

Ok it's 31 degrees. I have no idea where I got 70 from.

Even still....I need links people links

I Want to know how they make it so flat... I heard that if it isnt' flat enough racers have been known to lose some teeth after so many laps, the shaking from the surface of the track not being flat enough results in them rattling their teeth out.
