Anyone going to spectate? Never been here, is this even a spectating event?

You need to race your car there, that straight and your power go together like pizza and beer.

 

[Bruce Jibboo]

Yes but not tomorrow which is a full IMSA race?

 

[10sec]

Yeah, eventually. Just figured I'd say it since you already brought it up.

 

[Bruce Jibboo]

I am enticed to run that track.

you'll top out the car in prolly 3 spots. as a novice i went 145 there in the sti and the only reason i didn't go faster is i didn't want yet another gear to shift down with my crappy heel toe at the time.

 

[Bruce Jibboo]

Ya I don't think I've exceeded 120 at AB or Gingerman, those turns come up fast AF

 

[GOON]

Will be leaving here shortly to head up there. I go almost every year.

 

[Bruce Jibboo]

Didn't realize how far north so didn't make it

Thought this race was on some fox channel but uverse u300 package doesn't seem to have it

 

[Bruce Jibboo]

this track seems nuts, I sure wouldn't be pushing too many limits knowing all this

Never tempt Road America. Road America doesn’t need to be prompted to bend every body panel on your car. It does as it pleases, which won’t please you.

Just remember: you may think of Road America as pure Wisconsin cheer, but we see through that friendly pile of deep-fried cheese straight to those car-eating walls. We know.
