HOOT!!! Sure you have. In your little red ladies car?I've only done about 95 in my Miata, but I've done about 130 in my brother's Acura and about 150 in my dad's Jag.Michael
Oh golly!!! That’s ......not that fast.

MOOHOOHOOHASAHAAHAAHARRHARRRRRRRR.So you can just bend the laws of physics, can you?But, but, but, you don't understand, it's the corners, or the straights, or the rpm limiter, or the tires, or the exhaust smoke and side mirrors. BWAHAAAHAAAHAAAAHAAAAARRRRRRRRR..It IS the corners and the length of the straight, Michael. If you actually knew anything about this subject, you'd know that.Alan Baker
Riiight. HOOT!!!! BWAHAAAHAAAH. To bad you still don't know how to drive after a three day course. MOOHOOHOOHAAHAAHAAHAAARRRRRRRR.Sorry, Michael. But no human--no perfect robot driver--could get more than about 4 mph more out of a Formula Skip Barber on that track.Michael
BWAHAAAHAAAHAAAHAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAA
No, actually. It's a downhill, off-camber turn where at track out with the road leaning to the outside, you're doing about 75mph.Alan BakerMichael
That's just the facts, and people who really know about road racing have no problem understanding that. They also understand that that's not even the part that takes any bravery at all. Turn 9 is where it's scariest to be going fast.
WHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Is that the 30 mph turn!!!!!! Sounds really, really scawey. HOOT!!!!
