The Timing Tower is located next to the 458 surviving feet of test track. The purpose of the Timing Tower was to capture, process, and disseminate critical timing data, essential for evaluating vehicle performance, conducting competitive events, and ensuring safety on the track.

Within the test track are test track pins that helped correlate recorded data to specific locations on the track, improving the accuracy and precision of analysis. Within our collection, we have some recovered pins from the PPG 2 1/2 mile track demolition that were probably recovered by Jon Otman or Carl Altz, or both in circa 2004. The inventory accounts for 65 pins. Some of these track pins are on display in a case within the Tank Test Center.
