Generally I enjoy three or four leaf clovers. We still have a few around here.

On track, I've only really driven on two local tracks so I only have 23 choices. Maybe T6 at Laguna Seca (yes, not the corkscrew) and the carousel at Sonoma.

Yes.

I ride dirt bikes occasionally. There is a turn with a log embedded on the side that makes an absolutely perfect bank/berm. Nobody I know has ever mentioned it, but everytime I ride "Julies" Trail in Tillamook National Forest, I smile.

Too many to list. With no reservation Missouri International is my favorite. Not one straightway, basically a 4 mile long track that is all curves, and 1,200 feet of elevation change. It made my face hurt from grinning, and it was really tough to do a 25 minute session as I was exhausted.

So no one single favorite curve, I love em all!

Every time I drive home, I have my own private hill climb.
Sometimes, ya just gotta drop it into 2nd gear and floor it going up the hill.

I like having several acres in the woods.

If any type of turn counts....My favorite movie is 'U-Turn' with Sean Penn. :)

There is a freeway exit near my house, double Apex. Love hitting that when traffic is low.

Photo T1 at Laguna really is a turn.
T2 is the Andretti hair pin.

I don’t know if I have a favorite turn, after driving a lot of tracks in the southeast, but I remember we were at Road Atlanta and after going through the esses in the 930, there was a car in front of me, passing a car on the left. I came up on them so fast, I could not slow down enough, so I split them and went on to turn six.

I wish I had it on video.

There are a few favorites but the ones I typically like the most are turn combinations that generate big gains if you hit your marks.

1. The Bus Stop at Buttonwillow CW
2. Spring Mtn. Charleston Peak CW 10 & 11C gully
3. Sonoma CW- The Esses
4. Chuckwalla- CW The bowl

All of these pay off if you can get on the gas early.

Turn 9

The Esses at Road Atlanta. It feels so good to get it right. The g-forces almost make you dizzy.

In my part of Oklahoma, the roads mostly follow the section lines. It is like a big chess board, and few curves. A few miles from my house is I-35. There are some insane sharp curves for the on-ramps and off ramps. I have several favorites, all to merge into 70 MPH traffic. :rolleyes:

Turn 10 and turn 17 at Sebring.
I miss those times.

There has been so many. I like the corkscrew but I’ve had a lot of fun at so many other tracks too.

Turn 3 of the roval at Daytona was probably the most fun when I raced a 14 hour endurance race there in a tropical storm… it was fun collecting the good ol boys in that corner as they tried to brake and turn at the same time e and went off into the tires or were tip toeing around there… all those years of winter driving paid off… and the limited slip diff in the front of that car. Straight line brake, turn in, power on…

Mosport
Turn 2
I miss it

When I was going to school at SDSU, it was the College Ave NB to the SB I-8 on ramp. Before there were meters installed it was always fun to take it in second gear and pulling in my BMW 1600. I remember scaring a lot of passengers on that turn.

I used to do laps of this curve all summer long before moving away

^^^ Ha. I love that long left-handed sweeper, too!

My 12-yr-old (who has done all the F1 tracks online) votes for: The Parabolica, Azerbaijan (LeClerc's "I am stupid" corner),the banked corner ar Zandvoort, Eau Rouge/Radillon, and The Bus Stop Chicane.

I like this one long, slightly bumpy uphill right-handed sweeper on Encinal Canyon, coming up off PCH. And there's a double apex left hander going uphill Laurel Canyon Blvd, just before Mulholland.
