The Koenigsegg CCR has the record on that track..241 MPH. Its big enough so that it appears you are pretty much driving a straight line.

Here is a Ford GT on track:

Looks like your pretty much fucked if you crash. Would take quite a while to get the emergency crews out if your at the part of the circle opposite from the pits
