Duane, that might be a little risky giving blood then running a couple laps around Charlotte.....

As if ti isn't dangerous enough. It is a little bit dizzying if you hit the banking at the wrong speed... you need about 75-80 or you're going to feel like you're falling off.

I was sick and had blood drawn at the doctor about a year ago... I got dizzy and my blood pressure fell to like 70 over 50.

My brother-in-law took a bus ride around one of the bigger, high banked tracks and said they had to maintain atleast 70-80mph just to keep from rolling over? I'm not 100% sure of the facts but some of the banking on those tracks is ridiculous, you see some of the safety workers removing debris and they have to walk sideways up the track.......
