As far as i know it is the longest privately owned straight i have ever heard of, Bentley and McLaren do a lot of testing there so well worth a visit, if you book the track time of course.

Just for reference i went in the Ruf CTR 3 which "only" went 206mph and all i can say is OMG! I would can;t imagine what another 23mph would have felt like, or what the stopping distance felt like but all i can say is it must have been terrifying!

Glad you enjoyed the vid

3.2km is almost 2 miles. I am glad to see US built cars are doing 22x and some better in a standing mile.
