Top speed was about 140 in the IROC's. The instructors took us for a ride at about 160. The G's were pretty amazing. They said we were feeling about 2 G's where the IRL cars can feel about 5 G's on the fast tracks. I couldn't imagine that.
Everyone there smoked except for my dad and I. That's the only way to get in the school...smoke lots of Marlboros.
