Mat,
Good question. I've never driven a race car there, but my partner Howard
had a lot to say about it. I won't talk about that, get the information first
hand.
Also, when you get to the salt, right after the drivers meeting everyone can
drive down the course. Go down the long course to the 8 mile point while
looking around to verify where your are.
That alone is an experience.
I'm interested to hear what the REAL drivers have to say.
