Well, I don't know about this track. I feel like I am in a washing machine half the time. I can turn laps in the low 42's but I probably spin once in every ten and hit the wall half of those. I have been turning laps mostly alone cause I keep spinning, don't know what it will be like in traffic. -- McWhom -----------------------------------------------------------------

I pulled off a few high 39's last night, but the first 10 or so laps when running the FAST setup are a major handful from the apex-out. It is major loose and you have to continuously feather the throttle. After 10 or so laps it settles down, but if folks don't get some seat time in before Saturday's race the Start and restarts are going to be eventful.

I just ran a few laps there, you're right it *will* kick your ass if you're heavy footed on the exit of turns with cold tyres :) My best lap so far is 39.167, the draft is awesome there :) Without a draft I can run mid 39's, which means Tim & Ginger will be in the mid 38's easily ! <G> -- Ian P <email invalid due to spammers>
