Default Yeah ~100, makes it sound cooler, definitely 90+... <more>

I dive down into 1 off the bank at about 130, no brake, full throttle, 5th gear. Brake relatively lightly (shift to 4th) to slow a little and start my super long **** turn 2 approach doing over 100 mph. Maintenancing throttle and looking for the yellow box as a marker and turn into 2 at around ~90 and go full thottle fairly quickly, esp since I'm just off the high cam. The high cam kicks in before the apex, right when there's a mid corner undulation. The previous lap was the fastest I'd ever taken it, had pretty hot tires, and this time she didn't stick. Oh well, I knew when to give up, fun steering in you mirror.

When I get my pace up, I am definitely over 100 before braking pretty hard for 3... I dive into 7 at about 110, no brake... Running around a ~2:02, probably breaking into 2:01s at TWS CCW...

Default You should not encourage those of us with heavier cars to do stupid things. :)

And thanks very much for the ride. However, I think it cost me more than a nickel if I have to buy one of those things.

Default when i was doing things nicely and the planets were aligned...

i would turn into 1 at 115 with just maintenance throttle going downhill. i hit brakes more than you setting up for turn 2. at the yellow box, i would start turn in at 80 with 1/2 throttle, then full throttle at apex. full trackout on 2 would be 85 or so, i think.

turn 7 is a blast. I normally turn into it at 85-90, but i took a couple of butt-pucker runs through it at 100. I could keep doing it, but i'm too chicken.
