      @jfbeam 7 лет назад +35

      Slight correction: your team roster has to have 4 paid driver slots filled. They don't have to be on your team, or even drive your car. (read: find a team with more than 4 drivers, and have them fill in your slots. it's the same money, and no one cares what car you drive.) A jag was driven _solo_ at Barber. We (duff beer) have driven down a man many times. (even down two, as I recall)

    There is nothing I hate more than the question "how fast did you go" from non-racing people. Circuit racing is not about top speed, it's about maximizing lap times. G forces and maximizing them to the grip limits is what it's about. Go to the salt flats if you just want straightline speed.

    • @nunyabusiness896
      @nunyabusiness896 6 лет назад +4

      And I was saying, whether this or any other racing on a circuit track, it's about driving the car to the limit, not the top speed that matters. LeMans is a boring track in spite of being one of the fastest, yet Laguna Seca is a blast in spite of not really having a particularly high top speed on the main straight for a given vehicle. Asking for top speed for a circuit track is a dumb question and proves that you don't understand racing if you ask it.

      DrahcirSmada Lamborghini still builds tractors. They belong to the "SAME" company and the tractors are pretty much Just silver painted Deutz-Fahr tractors. Porsche tractors were Red and similar to Hatz tractors but i think they were Not the Same, might be wrong though.
