I raced for 15 years here in the States. Speed is all relative. If you drive a go kart at 50 MPH it feels like 100, yet at over 140 MPH in my Formula atlantic it felt ok. The big problem comes into play when you go off the track over 100 MPH. If the car handles decent, the brakes and tires are good, you will enjoy yourself. just remember to not be an idiot, go slow at first and work your way up. Don't expect to be the next Montoya in your first laps out. It takes time. Even now I have a Porsche 944 Turbo that i have set up for the track and in only 3 events this year I am still learning how this car handles at speed because it weighs 3000 LBS and my Atlantic car was only 990 LBS. Even with my experience it is still taking time for me to be quick with this car, but I must say after only 3 events and 7 years of driving the speed limit, because I stopped racing in 1999, I am only 1.4 seconds off the lap record for my cllass at one track and .8 at the other that I ran. I know with a few more I will be able to break them both no problem. Mostly because I have no brakes after 2 laps and found a cracked valve at my last event a week ago. So with both issues remidied I would think I should be ALLOT faster and all of this on street tires and not racing slicks which is waht all the guys run. I am looking forward to next year already when I get my license back and do a bunch of Porsche Club races......
