Seemed like if they had another gear they could have gone faster on the straight. Looked like they were topped out at about 220 mph. Crazy how fast the turns come and go.

Waahhh, waahhhh, waahhhhh - what a rush that would be. Everyone owes it to themselves to experience some level of track time. Back in my Viper days I would attend the SRT Track Days events at Laguna Seca. As much as I enjoyed driving and making a fool of myself nothing even comes close to riding shotgun around the course when a real pro is driving, better than your first day at Disneyland.
