I don't think that is the actual TT but similar in "track" style.

I liked the "barriers" that were put up in front of some of the buildings. They looked more like they were put up to protect the building than racers (like the TT).

You can get shifter Kart up to about 125mph. Most tracks or course are geared allot lower but even at the local tracks you can get them into the 60's or 70's mph. The cornering abilities of a kart are equal to a formula one racer. You can easily pull 3G’s in a corner.

And yes you can break your ribs doing that without the proper gear.
