And many of us have no use for a road course. People build their Camaros for different things.

This. Wouldn't you rather have fun for 45-65 seconds rather than 10-13....?

Anything wrong with both... 10-13 sec isn't going to crimp your schedule too much..

I don't know. Can you get to 140mph on a road course?

Of course, but you probably wouldn't make it to the finish line.

I thought we were only suppose to wax and look at our Camaros....

My car being stock, I doubt it, and if I did manage it somehow, it definitely wouldn't make the next corner, lol

...but it won't hit 140 in a 1/4 mile either. I bet on most road courses I could make it to 110-115 at least a couple of times per lap, where on a strip its wham, bam, thank you ma'am and I'm spent.....

Speed is all a matter of perspective anyway, for example, 65mph on an autocross course in a parking lot feels INSANELY fast. Especially when you're headed straight for a busy freeway and the only thing separating the "course" from the road is a chain-link fence and about 30 feet of grass....

Circuit of the Americas would be perfect and so would Road America.
