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!

Be happy too. But one of us has to be an instructor and I'm not.
