Good stuff! Thx for posting links.

 

damn, i could watch that all day long. i'm surprised by how bumpy a few of those corners are (the ones with the multiple surfaces)

 

Its funny actually, I was running a few laps round there on a game (GTR Evo) earlier and my wheel went crazy with the FFB when I hit those areas.

Had me wondering if they were actually that bumpy and a few hours later this video confirms that

I'd love to get a run there this summer, I think it works out around 600 miles each way for me which isn't too bad.

 

Yeah, I could watch that all day too. Great video. Thanks for posting.
