Circuit Gilles Villeneuve

looks like it's going to be on the busch series calendar for 2007. It will be interesting to see how the stock cars get around there, being there's no run-off room for the most part and several chicanes.

I count 40 shifts a lap with a 6 speed C5-R.

now for up close and (almost) personal with the track... note the speeds!

Just since they do 40 in a lap in a game, dont mean they will be doing that many in real life. nor the speeds

that's what i counted with my shifting..If I shifted 40 times with a 6 speed, I figure the busch cars with 4 speeds will shift in the 27 SPL range.

And yes, the C5-R is faster than any nascar vehicle...but on that particular straight going toward the wall of champions and last chicane, it's VERY long, looks to be about 3500 or so feet.
