So, I suppose that NASCAR drivers would be able to handle the lack of ***
going to their brain and inner ear, the naseau, the vertigo, and the eventual
blacking out from running at 230mph and pulling several vertical G's for over 2
hours when even air force stunt pilots can't do such a feat, much less CART
drivers?
Go back under your bridge, troll.  Where's ymenard with his Troll O' Meter when
you need him?  :)

FWIW, IRL races there with speed only 10 or 15 MPH slower...

Yeah, but lat acc increases with the /square/ of the speed so
it makes more difference than you'd first think.

Not to mention that's a 10 or 15mph slower _average_ speed. So the speeds in
the turns may be significantly slower, depending on how well these IRL cars
accellerate in top gear.

Greetings,
I heard that the drivers would be glad to have raced if the speed could have
been reduced to what the IRL drivers were seeing. "G" forces would have been
substantially reduced.The only problem was that of no time to do the testing
so it could happen. I understand there was no prior testing done at this
track by any team.

They would have been stupid to race under the debilitating conditions.
