Yeah you're right, its either super slow or you have to trail through there.  It's the slowest turn on the course.

A couple of days ago I was talking with a Boxster owner who just moved to the area and is eager to take his car to the track. He willnot be settled in time for our Pocono event but he's looking to our Thunderbolt event. Not that it may matter for a first time track experience all that much, but I think Brian is right that Lightning is a simpler track to get someone around the first time.

Smile The fewer turns to remember is the winner.  Point him in the direction of a track map and some video.
