Anyhow the place is great fun but as you say, very scary, especially on the tourist laps. The guardrails are close and there is always one sucker crazier or stipidier than you so there is a possibility to crash

7.41 for a full lap is VERY quick


I stand corrected -- thanks for the info Andre!

So the 20.8 KM track - covered in 7.41 minutes - equals an average speed of 104.65 MPH....

Still -- a very high average!
