That track has a lot of traction, so you will see a lot of guys traction rolling.Run your qualifiers with 65 front and 71 rear and go a little heavier with your shock oil....600 weight or even 700. Surface is smooth and tire wear is good. You should get at least 20 minutes run time with tires cut that low.

For the mains you will need about 72 rear and 66 front for a 1/2 hour main

Yes, Sean is Jamaican.

Not sure. Kissimmee is one of the better tracks in the US. My personal preference is Ft Myers because it is so challenging. It's almost as if this track has a personality.

Whenever you feel that you have conquered it, it gets up and bites you.....hard. That's why they call it the test track to the world. Anybody coming out with a new car tests it there first before releasing it.

When you are ready to go up, let me know and i will come with you. Whichever track you want to try.
