I can't imagine doing it backwards.  Oak Tree wasn't exactly designed for a 100+ MPH approach...no run off room!

I am really concerned about taking it up the rear at the bottom of spiral from some crap can with inferior brakes.  Gravity adds speed.

I want to live or die trying.

So HPDE experience doesn't count when understanding the course?  How many miles have you driven at VIR?  I didn't say the event wouldn't be safe.  I said a chicane wasn't needed to keep it safe, and I've yet to see one do anything other than cause a fustercluck.

the walking tour is pretty informative also.  kinda wish i had done the school were they drove South Course backwards.  smile

You were already in detention that week end!
