Thunder Hill, Laguna.
I like Laguna, the drop after the corkscrew makes the car feel fast.

Speaking of track days, has anybody looked at prices?
PCA at VIR and Road Atlanta in June are $650 and $600 respectively, for non-PCA members. PCA members are $50 less. On second thought, I was just at Roebling Road and it was $500, so maybe VIR and Road Atlanta are not such a bad deal after all. Putting my grouchy old man hat on, I remember we used to pay $350 for VIR and Road Atlanta. |

motorsports ranch Houston, motor sports ranch Cresson, Texas world speedway, grandsport speedway, Harris hill, Nürburgring
not a track rat unfortunately, just a few times on most of these tracks. My kids are getting old enough that I hope to be able to road trip to a few more tracks, newly purchased cayman will be a willing partner hopefully. Probably 100 autocross layouts as well I guess.

I raced in SCCA for several years with an ITB BMW 2002 but haven’t been on track since my kidney transplant in 2008. I recently bought an EProd 914-6 roller and am prepping it for the 2024 season.
