Sure, but the result of hitting it at 40mph vs. 80mph is catastrophic.

And yes, part of being in control of the car is knowing the track conditions and not pushing the road unless you can do so safely.

My point is, unless you pre-drive just before making a high-speed pass AND have spotters on a 2-way, you CANNOT know the "track" conditions. Listen, I push a little, but well below the limits of the Vette or even myself. That is what
race tracks are for. Period.
