What is your favorite track? - Page 4

All you crazy SoCal folks... I can't BELIEVE not one of you mentioned Sears Point/Infineon as a favorite. What a FLOWING track! I have ridden/raced on most of the tracks that you guys have mentioned and feel as though you are all missing something BIG. Thunderhill is also a wonderful track as is Buttonwillow but there is just something nothing short of amazing about Sears. Admittedly I have never been to Laguna to ride but just being there makes me wanna give it my vote. See you at the track!

Brands Hatch GP circuit. Except for the bumps at the last turn that causes your suspension to go crazy, it has tight twisty sections to make it technical, fast, flowing sections to give you the high speed rush. Bridges, to make you wanna duck your head under. Elevation changes that drops you 80 feet, and then force you to hit your stomach against the tank as you go back up 80 feet. Blind turns to give you that feeling of wanting to shart your pants if you mess up. And of course, it's smooth surface.

Following Brands, I'd say Jennings GP in north Florida for it's smooth surface and technical layout.
Roebling Road in Savannah, Georgia, only cause of it's high speed front straight.
Willow Springs, cause it's nothing but a pure horsepower track and I love that rush of turn 8.
T-Hill and Laguna Seca are up there as well.

Haven't been to Sears Point yet. That's a few months away with AFM.

Nice list of tracks! I've added Pahrump to my list of tracks and will soon add Fontana. From the 3 that I have done I would still have Streets as my fav, it's just a fun goat track to run on. They def. need to repave some areas but I guess it's dilapidated form is part of the fun factor.

Here's me coming out of Surtee's corner getting ready to head down the high speed back section of the GP portion of the track. I'm #83.

I really dig Willow! Racing there, riding there, whatever is SOOOOO much fun.. Anyone not having fun there, aint going fast enough :laughing

I also like Buttonwillow becuase of the "Wheelie Jump"

NgoWay · 12-17-2005, 11:46 PM

I've only been to a track day on one track... so I guess my opinion shouldn't really count. I did have a great time a Buttonwillow though...

I've done fan laps at Pamona and Laguna Seca... Laguna Seca was fun... I think it'd be fun to do a trackday there...

HenryF · 12-18-2005, 11:24 AM

Buttonwillow not too long of a track , enough turns and easy to memorize.

Freakshow999 · 12-18-2005, 06:55 PM

Had to vote for Laguna Seca after riding it last Friday :happyb

But if we were being realistic Pahrump by far is my favorite track....

I will definitely ride Laguna again as soon as I can afford it :thumbup :notooth
