      For me it is ASCARI... Nurbürgring and SPA





      in 2008 i met Michael Verger,, the main Radical testdriver,,, at Ascari.. and i asked him ,, if he had a favorite track,,,,,,,,,

      he answered me ,, THERE ARE JUST TWO TRACKS IN THE WORLD............

      Nurbürgring and Pikes Peak

      and i understood then... they are the two tracks the everything counts about beating the lap record,,

      Stefan Bellofs record is 29 years old.. and is still today unbeaten

        Bathurst at Mount Panorama, New South Wales, Australia.

        The Bathurst 1000 is a 1000 kilometre (620 miles) race held annually at Mount Panorama Circuit in Bathurst, New South Wales, Australia. The race traces its lineage to the 1960 Armstrong 500.

            There is a video on the internet ,, when a group of OZ,, bathurst competitors decided to take apart at the 24 hour nurburgring,, some years back.. the won their class i think
            but it was their script of the ring that cought my attention.. the Bathurst was like a rodeodrive in Sidney harbour (( or something like that)) compared to the ring,, these guys took the 600 hp commodore also over .. later but chrased the car ,, they were driving really good with that car and the pace was stunning IMO compared to the mighty Porsches and other EU drivers and cars that have a lot more experience vs the aussies at the ring

                  Ill second this amazing track and such a challenging track with blind corners big crests, and norrow track lined with concrete barriers it would have to be up there with the best.

                    Definitely Monaco closely followed by the ring. Having been to Monaco, I'm hooked, I gotta go back, not a visual track, but the whole environment around the GP is amazing to be a part of.

                      Yeah I would love to drive Mount Panorama sometime or even just go watch the bathhurst 1000. Out of my favorite tracks I have been able to drive the Ring, Laguna, Kyalami and Road Atlanta. I think the common denominator between my favorite tracks is the amount of elevation changes.

                        What about Sears Point/Infineon/Sonoma Raceway? I always thought that looked really interesting.

                            i hope to someday drive watkins glen, mid-ohio, road atlanta, and road america. those are 'close' to me.

                            in a dream world, Laguna Seca and the Nordschliefe.

                              I'm so sad I'm too young to have seen the Bridge...my dad used to run there and said it was easily one of the most impressive tracks around. Look for an onboard lap in a Can-Am McLaren in the documentary "Can-Am: The Speed Odyssey."

                              Watkins Glen is a fun track, but those barriers are sooo close all the way around... :?
                              Mid Ohio should be first on that list for sure. It has a real good flow to it from corner to corner. Just make sure they use the chicane at the end of the straight; it is must friendlier to smaller displacement cars.

                                Mosport is definitely up there.
