I like how the Ford Transit gets a mention down at the bottom

It'd be nice to see Heidfeld have another go at a lap around there with some proper tyres on and not doing all the publicity. I want to see what kind of lap time he could set. Of course, it probably wouldn't be safe to put a standard transmission in the car around that place...

I read in my Road&Track magazine that BMW claims the F1.06 could do a 5:15.

I am not sure how good a track it would be to test how good a car is. the place is all about how big your balls are. I am sure unless they had the same driver that would make a big difference

I think its a good place. Its like a 13 mile long Sebring, and its perfect for testing production cars. You know to drive on the ring it only cost 21 euros per lap? i think thats awesome, and its on my bucket list to drive on the ring someday.

I have done 10 laps and terrified myself at least once a lap. this year my 1.5 civic shed is gonna do a few laps.

Trust me it is all about having the balls. your right it is good for testing but not for comparison
