Red Bull Airrace Saturday Qualifying

This is quite an exhilarating event. The speed and technical aspects make this much more then going in circles. Not only do the pilots have worry about how fast they go, they how gravity to contend with. Several turns involve banks that increase the forces of gravity, up to 10-12 G's. That means at 10 G's a 150 pound pilots feels like he weighs 1500 pounds. That's not a typo.
So, if you're looking for somethings exciting to do the Red Bull Airrace is what you're looking for. So get your butt down to the shore and be thrilled.
