This was after the raceway made changes to the track (resurfacing/smoothing/etc.). Obviously two different racing characteristics but the MotoGP guys said the changes were horrible for them (not as safe and quite slower than previous years). Looks like it improved the F1 ride. Thanks...it was bitchen. Good luck with your ride.

I slay that track on GT A spec and MotoGP for Xbox 360... ;)
Never raced it in real life though. Looks like a blast.

The cork screw is a blast. If you hit it just right you can feel the rear end come off the ground, lose traction and squeal the tires as you come back to power thru the turn into 3rd gear. All that at 60 + mph. :crossx: I'm addicted. That's why I'm selling the boat.

What are you going to drive?
The wife and I drove a Miata in SCCA competition. Very cool.
In the Solo 2 events, it would beat many bigger cars.
I just can't get her to enjoy a dirty race track in 110 deg heat the way she likes the lake in 110 deg heat...
Zonta nailed it, wish he would replace Ralphy in the Toyota. Wonder what Kimmi would do on that track with one hot lap and no Park Ferme...

Here's the R/T 2000. You have to go to their race school in order to race. I raced karts as a kid. I'm really sad I waited this long to do this. So I'm jumping in feet first. If you ever need a driver, I've got my SCCA competition lic. :)
