Ahhh there's nothiing like holding your foot down on the pedal and hearing your engine hit it's limit and you still have half a straight left before the first turn which just happens to be a 2nd gear turn. Just remember this...don't forget to hit your brakes early enough!!!

I'm dying here. I'll be there, but only has a spectator. We're vacationing in Disney World that week. I did get a Saturday pass, so I'll be there all day.
Larry, I'm betting we have the same R&P. I hit the rev limiter in 5th on the back straight....way before the brake zone into the bus stop. You're a better driver than, so I imagine that you'll enter the bowl even faster.

Does anyone know what % of the laps duration is infield versus oval?
