[Shotimes] OT Great Straightways

[Scott Sweeney]

Ron's comment made me think of the question, what are some of the best straights we drive on?  Where are they and a good description as to why you like it.
 
Maybe the next time one of us is in that area, we to can open it up!

Look at the regs for the Silver State. You need to build a race car just to
average over 110 or so!

Come out here to I-75 north of Detroit. You can hit higher speeds than you
could on the straights at Indy. And it's free......unless you get caught!!

Thou shalt not use IMS for anything but the 500, until we added NASCAR, oh
yeah, and F-1.

I gets used for testing, but I think that is it. None of us plebian types
get to use it. That is why it was such a big deal that we got to drive on
it in 2000.

Get in line, it's been said before.

Is there such a thing as a track day at Indianapolis Motor Speedway?

Dare we dream?

If not, what do they do in between only 3 races a year? Let the pavement
bake?
