Can I have the pay-per-view rights? LOL

In light of all this discussion on safe and unsafe courses, I came up with
this design idea I wanted to run by you and see what you think.
OK, first you have a wide open start and shoot down a straightaway. Then,
just before the gasoline truck parked on the other end of the lot is a sharp
90 degree right. You go down another long straight which turns into a giant
slalom. Get a little tank slapping action going on, and you can take all
the gates sideways if you want - they'll be wide enough. At the end of that
we'll throw in the hairpin by the concrete wall we've been talking about -
the slalom will slow you down enough for it, right? Then another long
straightaway, except this time you take a jump over a 100 foot long fire
pit. You'll have to be going at least 80mph to clear it. Hang a sharp left
(or fall into the bottomless pit just outside the turn), cross the finish,
and come to a stop inside the box, which is actually a cage containing a
hungry Bengal tiger. Get out of your car and exit the cage with your life
and all your limbs intact (minor bites and scratches are acceptable). If
you don't make it out, it's a DNF.
So what do you think? :)
