My favorite is Cal-Speedway. Has a sick front straight then a quick turn 1 and 2 and some really fun corners. It's real easy to learn but damn hard to get right. Streets is really fun too. Least favorite so far is Buttonwillow. It's a slower track and quite technical.

For me, it's a toss-up between Pahrump, and Streets.

Pahrump - Turns 1, 2, 4, 5a & b, dang...all of them are SICK!!!!!

Streets - the new paved section is sweet!! Turns 3 - 7 are INSANE...and of course THE BOWL!!!!!

For me, the choice is easy; Streets. That's the track I've ever been on, but its still awesome

With all I've heard, Pahrump is definately one I want to try.

only been on 1 track, and that was when I had no idea how to ride, and that was Road america. I think though after what I remember of it it would still be my favorite after seeing other tracks on video. Though I have to admit I was on it before they changed "The Kink". I'd love to ride Laguna as well.

+1,000,000 for Miller.

Just spent two days there last weekend running the full 4.25 mile 23 corner "outer" circuit.

Best racetrack, ever!


Worth the 1600 mile roundtrip and $300/day track fee!
