Looking at that though doesn't seem as big as what some tracks have though. Plus the track has better cars, faster speeds, and pulling more G's.

all this talk of track turns and whatnot......when a group of guys and i did the dragon and those backroads at speeds most likely unsafe ones and never had one fuel issue. those tight turns and small roads are probably just as hard if not worse on the car than the track lol

What are you talking about?


You don't do turns. You just drag race 1/4mi at a time.

I think a longer radius still. I mean the carousel at my track I hold 110 on my bike for a minute. Big deference here.

I disagree! I don't think any of you really no what a carousel or key hole feels like and how long, hard and what G's you pull. The dragon is a joke to what I'm talking about. No S you didn't have problems on them.

Omg dude I'm talking about the turns, not your happy factor in your pants. You need G's plan and simple to fuel starve. The dragon has no turns like a track, period.

Here I can hold about 80-85 top right, not that much G's, no idea of fuel starve.



Here I can hold 110-115, much more G's, much easier time to starve.

haha geez someone doesnt like jokes. i set that all up for a fast and furious joke. dont pop a blood vessel

you may just have a bad fuel pump or something if you had fuel starve at low G's. i'd say look into it.

as for the dragon if you take it on at speed then i think it becomes quite like a track but probably harder than most. might not be as fast but the turns come much faster and some are really tight. plus you only have 1 lane to use not a whole width of a track......oh yea and cops. difficulty seems to fall in favor of the dragon here lol 11 miles - 318 turns. how many does your track have
