That's one of my favorite passing areas on a bike, between the last right of the esses and the hard left that feeds you downhill.

Here's one of my vids for comparison. One of my faster laps, a 2:03, starts at about 8:30 in the video. But the speed difference between us on the straights has to be worth all that and more.

Great vid ! A couple of guys I run with can pull a 2:03 if everything is right and no traffic. FTD was a 1:57 in a tube chassis Z06. (Lou Gigliotti) We had a couple of real racers there showing us skills. John Heinracy, Andy Pilgrim and Lou.
