You were stationed in California last I knew and may be off to another PCS by now.

If you haven't run down the track in the last 12 months then yes you are "disconnected". If you weren't you would have known about the bleachers.

What are the fastest times you have run at the track? I have no issues stopping a 3,500lbs. car with Strange brakes on the front running 10's and mid 120's.

Since I have been going the past year I have only witnessed one car not make the last turn off. It was a GTR and had some sort of failure in the shutdown area causing him to bounce off the guardrails. His car was no quicker/faster than mine but it sure had a lot more brake and tire on it. Not going to blame the track on that.

Past year? Maybe you didn't know the old track then. There were a few vehicles that didn't make the turn off.

4500lb truck with stock brakes going thru the traps at around 120 wasn't the best of ideas. Exact times? Hell I don't remember. I have tbi I have hard times remembering shit that's not important enough in life to remember like track times.

It wouldn't be disconnected. Maybe uninformed.

Anyways you are the best and know it all.

I absolutely did run there when it sucked. Looking through timeslips I show I was there on 07/15/11. It sucked then no doubt. Much has changed since.

I don't know everything however I speak from experience and tell it like it is. If you don't like it put me on ignore.
