There at least 3 other dirt-raising curb-skipping corners...

Actually, turn 2 should have you break the land speed record (set at Lightning last year) in the dirt. The front straight, should you reach light speed somehow by skipping the Octopus, has a 20' wide dirt drag strip too!!

Firehawk, you gotta get out of E stock and run with us in NASA/Sp3, lots of incentives.

And Dan, so glad to see you're back!

As for me, it's my birthday weekend, so give me room guys!
