If you could Race ????
If you could put your Vette on any race course and drive the S*#T out of it, which tracks would you pick??? My choices would be Road Atlanta & Watkins Glen " The Glen".!!!!

Road ATL for sure. I've been to a big event there and it was open to all cars to just cruise around the track. I was hooked right away!

Laguna seca, for I used to live about thirty minutes away a few years ago. I have always wanted to go for a few laps around the laguna seca track, and especially through the Corkscrew.

).

Now I have the Vette and this Saturday I will be doing something close to the corkscrew with way to much HP. I will be doing the Solo parking lot cones and undoubtedly get a feel for sliding the tires this weekend.
HPDE's to follow hopefully with Barber and then if I spring for a rollbar, my answer would be Road Atlanta where I watched the C5 Racing team do Petitte Lemans a year ago. What a thrill that would be.

Watkins Glen for sure! I'm another NR 2003 sim racer, and have put thousands of laps in there, then was able to actually go there and take a couple of laps as part of a motorcycle toy run a couple of years ago. Don't laugh at sim racing, its so much like the real thing that I felt totally familiar with that track.
