There were a ton of differences between banked track derby and flat track.
They couldn't stop and turn around.
The jams were 60seconds instead of 2 minutes.
They had two 15 minute periods instead of two half hours, so it went a few minutes longer than your average flat track bout.
They served penalties at the END of a jam, not during, which also meant the jammers never switched like in flat track.(to prevent a jammer-less situation)
It was really interesting to see all these differences.
Windy city lost, but they didn't do too bad for only skating on a banked track for a couple of days prior to this bout.
