Too long is 28-30 second laps, looking at 10-12 laps per 5 minutes.

Too short is sub 20 second laps (average), this will be 15+ laps per 5 minutes.

Anywhere in between is about right in my opinion.

The physical length to do this depends on the speed of the track, as you can understand. A fast layout will have to be longer, but slow it down with technical corners and jumps and it won't need to be as long.

So its not about the physical length, its what you do with it that matters.
