The front straight is obviously the longest "straight" and where the highest speeds are reached. We will have some rules to follow in order to keep speeds down on the front straight before entering turn #1, like we'll have to be off the gas at the start/finish line so your entry speed into 1 is at a safe speed. We've seen club bikes hitting 165mph on the front straight, to give you an idea.
#21 - #23 is a dog leg straight and the turn-in at #23, and onto the straight, is slower than the turn-in at #1, so you don't get as much speed back there. But it's a cool little straight from #22 to #23 because you dive down to the apex of #23, accelerate and go wide out onto the straight! It's very smooth and like Duane said, you don't have to be going fast to have fun on this course! You'll love it.
