    What race track would most like to drive if you could only get to drive one. I don't mean a parade lap either.

    To start there is no Nürburgring Nordschleife on the list. Because it would be a "why bother" for anything else.

    Laguna Seca. It's like on every video game and it would be cool to drive it for real.

    Laguna Seca aka Mazda Raceway. I want to feel the sensation of cranking it through the corkscrew

    Another for Laguna Seca. When I think of the corkscrew it makes me think of dancing.

    Jose Carlos Pace because it would include the opportunity to go to Brazil.

    Interlagos is such a nicer sounding name than Jose Carlos Pace. I select the Brazilian track.

    Laguna, to see if I could do a Zanardi on the Corkscrew - without soiling the seat. :cornut:

    First off, glad to see our game is back!

    Second, I have been to Laguna Seca but have not driven it. (Army training R&R day from pre mobilization at Ft. hunterLickit) It is also a challenging track on the video games, but there comes a point where you pretend drive it so many times on the games, that it kinda kills the desire to actually drive it.

    Even though there are some places in Monterey I would visit again, I'm going to have to go with Jose Carlos Pace... Make it a destination trip, get out and hang with the monkeys or something while I'm there!

    Laguna Seca. Know it from Gran Tursimo; would be excellent to experience it in a real car.

    Laguna! It's hands down one of the greatest go fast circuits I can attest to.

    For Chuck-imagine someone is paying all the expenses.
    Other notes: There are no street courses. Just road racing tracks.
    You can imagine yourself driving what ever you want. Not just your MINI

    Laguna Seca win over Jose Carlos Pace/Interlagos 11 to 4
