Roll Racing at Pocono Raceway 4/5/14

Is anyone in the area thinking of going to this? I was looking at the sign up list and there are a bunch of high powered GTRs, a handful of Vettes and BMWs along with a mix of everything else. Sadly I only noticed 1 MB. I'm curious to see how my car stands up after getting destroyed by some of the modded GTRs, but 1600 ft seems to be kind of short.

No I think its an unlimited number of runs for the day, but it looks like there is going to be over 100 cars running 2 at a time. Who knows how fast they spin them off. There is some youtube video of events of the past. I'm guessing top speed to be +/-150mph unless you can cheat the roll speed up to around 80-90 mph before the 1600 ft stretch, then maybe a little higher.
