matbe we should have a "So damn heavy that we are menaces to every other vehicle on the track." class. We could have all the trucks, me, BBB and whoever else drives a uncontrolable 5000# land yacht

Dunno how many times I have to say this, but I run Sebring all year long, do 140mph+ and don't even worry about the SRT Ram pickups or Ford Lightnings on the track at the same time.

If this little 80mph max glorified AX track scares you then best you stay home. The carnage is expected to be gruesome. shudder.

You need brakes? I wouldnt be able to run anyways. My brakes fade with normal driving

No argument here. Isn't it amazing you have to sign wavers to track but any bozo with a license can do the Clearwater Round-about?
