So we have a few Miata speeds from different drivers and all about the same, how about some Z06 speeds?
Ahh... I woulda guessed you were going about 70 through there :lol:

Z06 in this vid (turning a relatively slow lap) has a minimum speed of 42mph according to "Harry's Lap Timer". No idea how accurate that is...


Anyway, it seems like my supposition was a bit off, I would have guessed that Will/Gordon speeds through there would have been a few mph faster than "typical" fast Corvette speeds based on being able to carve a broader radius, but it looks like 40-42 either way. Then again it is kind of a weird corner...
