At 3.7 miles the old Mulsanne is longer than most entire tracks in the US.

Oh yes, let's discuss. I had a Zetec Birkin S3 with ITBs for a couple years. Solid axle, so slightly spooky to drive in the undulating mountains hard. It also constantly broke fender mounts, cracked the header, and was otherwise an assault on the senses with the buffeting. Definitely got the blood pumping, I had no weather gear with mine, or a heater, or wipers. So usability was... poor. I was coming out of an S2 Elise and wanted something even lighter, and that's a pretty short list. Now in an S1, which is a more ideal balance.
