I can tell you from past experiance that they will NOT let you run flat out on the oval during any of the track day events. I've attended several times in the Z06 and they hold you to about 120~130 mph with a pace vehicle leading.
You wouldn't want to run the full oval at Texas World.... To much grass on the track on the tops of the bankings.
Good share, some other peeps might be interested in the 1/8 
I got an invite from a friend thats going Kelly he is on a fiberglass and primer gxrr1000. I would like to make it but, I have equipment on loan to finish a landscaping project before my wife divorces me. Hope to make it soon though that is something I am looking foreward to.
Other than just getting to be on the track that dosen't sound like any fun .As large as that track is I bet you don't even get a sence of speed at that rate. Oh well It did sound like fun though.
