Kam,
Only one blind turn as in apex over the hill but several where you do not see the apex when entering the turn. Because Keyhole is such a tight turn if you can increase your speed before hit the apex and full throttle by the apex you can match the high horse guys down the back straight. Seems like the mid west guys dont drive as hard as we eastern nuts (yes they say we are nuts) so my sense of high hp cars not having an advantage may be distorted by the drivers I was with. However I found that every thing after the back straight was so technical that it was the equalizer for those in low hp cars that had a good line and could carry speed through the rest of the track. There where NA 944's that got around GT3's and 993 Twin Turbo.
