Pay strict attention to where the finish line is and apply light to moderate braking and progressively get more and more aggresive.. the shut down area is only 1/2 mile... with adequate run off there after...
Just be prepared to stop .... going fast is the easy part of the battle at any venue.... slowing down progressively is always more important then getting up to speed...
Ya think?

BBB is a real stand up guy!
Ya know, if he keeps his nose clean, and helps out on a regular basis, he can upgrade to AAA!

Just remember . . . It isn't life or death.
It's bigger than life or death! It's RACING.
