Oh for fokks sakes!

NA guys, don't get me wrong.
I've got nothing against racing in the U.S.
But why not make it interesting? Like Laguna Seca or something?
The brickyard is fine. It is a classic. But a classic oval - not a road course!

I think F1 at Laguna Seca would be terrific.

Just remember THE "Zanardi pass"! (short version) (long version)

It would be great to see how "chicken" the F1 drivers would be in comparison to that! :twisted:

exactly! :)

Right! Ofcourse those two would be up on the wishlist aswell. It's just that from what I have gathered in gaming Laguna strikes me as the most interesting and charming one. The latter is probably cause of the ol' corkscrew.

Btw:
Are there any cool street circuits in the US (besides Phoenix ofcourse)?
I think that would absolutely rock!! (surprise ;))

laguna seca i think is definitly because of security reasons. There is quite a difference between american tracks (exept for indianapolis) compared to those in the f1 circus atm.. if you exlcude monaco :)
Hell, there was even whine about racing monza this season due to security.



or am i thinking of road america? anyhow, i think this might be why.

Will go for road america, or Elkhart Lake other name for it. Anyway this track will be long on the wishlist and will stay there as i dont think it will pass the F1 safety mesurements as we have seen this year how dangerous this track actualy is.
