    I signed up a while ago with Hooked on driving

    Just recieved an email that we will be running the banking on turn 3 and 4 for the advanced group :)

    That should be tons of fun

    Running on the banking was awesome. I was seeing a 130+ exit speed out of turn 4 and 140+ at the end of the front straight then slight braking for turn 1 and sliding thru turn 2 in 3rd gear

    Had a fantastic day and took 3 people for rides

    Fred you cant miss the banking at Homestead. Its amazing. Halfway through you feel the Gs pushing you straight down while you are doing 115 and looking UP to see the apex :)

    Next time I'll see if I can lift my exit speed to 140 ;)

    Yes, the banking is amazing!! I was in Andy's car several years ago when we did it, and again during the Challenge weekend where we did the entire oval at a decent speeds!

    That's the same feeling I had - it's wierd because instead of the g's pulling you to the right side of the car in a normal left hand turn they pull you straight down, and instead of looking left you have to look up.....very strange sensation and very, very cool!!!
