Why did they start the clock at the end of that little straight, and stop it at the beginning.
Looks like they are trying to cheat some seconds.

I think that that spot is the generally accepted start point vs when you actually leave the toll booths

That is the old start point for the actual race track, but Nissan left out about 100yds of track from their timer.

Not too much room for run off. You would be into a guard rail before you know it.
Have you guys ever seen the woman racer that ran a van around that track on Top Gear? She was blowing by sportbikes in the corners. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1pklvKKnd0
