It'll take you all afternoon to wind up to do a lap and all evening to wind back down again.
The wind up and wind down - I remember it well. When we went a few years back, I took the opportunity to go round once on the eve we arrived, so on the next day, we knew what we were in for. Many of the others spent the first eve churning over the next day. We no longer had that problem.

On the next day, only managed two laps without a break, as it was so intense. And only three more laps during the course of the day. As the track was damp, there were no bikes out - what a relief!

Of course there is the issue that you can start a lap dry, and some way round find it's been raining - bit of a shocker!
