[F500] Fort Myers Tour data

[Chuck Voboril]

   Interesting Jeff,

   Various  people  tried  to set up courses out here that were wide open
   enough  to allow a Z06 or similar car beat me. Its never happened, not
   even PAX wise.

   But  then  again,  the very top guys in the country in SS aren't local
   here.  Ones  that can break into the top 6 to 15 at Nationals, maybe ,
   but that's about it.

   If  this Stewart guy beat top notch F500 cars and some top notch Z06's
   then  that  is  one  quick car and driver.....and it may say something
   about the course as well.

   If  one  takes a course design to the "open" limit and makes it just a
   single  straight,  sheer HP to # and AWD are sure to win. That Porsche
   ought to beat Cheng's AM car.

   I can see a high end Super Stock car being capable of mid to high 10's
   in a quarter mile.

   Chuck
