Coyote is on a distinguished road
Default

Not completely. It's a different configuration. It's called the Bugatti. The curved stand straight, the 1st 'S' are common. After that, the Bugatti goes to a large right (where I used to starve ^^) while the 24h configuration goes straight.

The 24h configuration is ~8 miles long (while the bugatti is 2.5 miles long) and use some public roads so they need to close roads, divert normal cars to other roads, etc. It's only done a couple of times each year and it's quite exceptional for normal people to be able to run on it.
I ran it only once, for 4 laps under heavy rain. 3 of the 4 laps where like driving on a overcrowded highway (driving at 100 mph, that is ^^) while on the last lap, we where more or less alone. That was so freaking awesome! Actually living the legend ^^
I'm not gonna forget that any time soon!
I hit something like 160 mph.
Here is the video I took that time:
