Turn 2 is indeed a great place to pull some G's. The motorcycle powered sports race pulled 2G's through there. Good brakes help there but not for the reason's people think. The sports racer pulled 3G's on the brakes going into 3 but you generate more heat there just because you're rotating the car with the brakes. Our 1200 has 280ZX calipers and rotors so brake fade is never an issue.
The track was designed as a school track so it is extremely technical. Most of the weekend use is track days but races there are very interesting. Because it is so technical you can keep up with guys who at horsepower tracks would leave you behind. Passing is also easy "if" you know how to set someone up.
Ratdat good for you for being so close to the track. Spring Mtn is 60 miles from my house , meanwhile the Las Vegas Motor Speedway is only 6 miles away but the rent is to high for most clubs. LVMS makes somehting like 28 Million off NASCAR so it is kind of silly to expect them to cater to club racers. No matter though, because SMMR is such a blast that I would probably choose to drive there anyway.
