Just curious for comparison.

"WE" run the 16 turn config -- 2.866 mile -- with "the cyclone" which is T5/T5A -- which is the elevation he's referring to.


The other track config is called "the by-pass" -- where you by-pass the cyclone....


I've heard various times (additional time) added when ruining the cyclone vs the by-pass.... anywhere from 2 to 3 seconds.

My "best time" a couple weeks ago of 2.08 is running the cyclone...
