BW is by far my fav, although all have a special place in my heart...

BW is fast, slow, sweepers, & blind elevation changes. What more could you ask for in a track? :love2

My favorite track was Riverside Int'l Raceway. I liked it because once you got around T8a, you could just let it rip to T9-about a half mile away. I drove that track in a 962C. Passing Corvettes by 40 mph is great! Cali Speedway is a nice facility-but it's got no elevation changes, therefor it's too easy to master.
I still would like to try the *Silver State Challenge* but I don't have a fast car currently. They won't allow bikes for 2 reasons-
1. Bikes are too s l o w and
2. Being 92 miles with no refueling, a bike would need 9 gallons to finish.

To fear death, my friends, is only to think ourselves wise, without being wise: for it is to think that we know what we do not know. For anything that men can tell, death may be the greatest good that can happen to them: but they fear it as if they knew quite well that it was the greatest of evils. And what is this but that shameful ignorance of thinking that we know what we do not know? - Socrates

I've only done two - Street and Big Willow. Both fun but if I had a choice I think the work out of the Streets takes the cake.

Laguna Seca....You will NEVER understand until you ride it yourself. There is elevation changes, and scenery. The history of it is also something taht leaves you in awe.

I suggest everyone do it just once.

I definitely want to ride that track. My short list of tracks I'm planning on visiting in '05: Infineon, Laguna, BW.

I voted for the rump

BTW Fontana is not even on the list of tracks to vote on does Fontana not count? How do you leave a full blown LOCAL AMA track from the vote?

I'm tossed up between Big Willow and Fontana. I do love the 3-4a4b combo of Willow but I loved the front straights and the horseshoe turn at Fontana I would do either in heatbeat.
