    Two day events? What's that all about? They must be cutting practice time. Also they're running UMC in a different configuration . Interesting

    Cheaper, keeps the bikes in front of the fans more. Not a fan of the East Turn one but guessing they can get changes made better than we could :D

    Good thing about that is if you decide to go back up there again, hopefully it rents for significantly less and you would still be using the MA layout?

    The f@ck it is, it's Laguna Seca. Just like Sonoma is Sears Point and Pocono is giant steaming shithole off of 80.

    My issue isn't really using the same layout - although that would help some I think - it's running a course different/cool enough for our riders to justify the drive. Not sure the East would have the same draw as the perimeter does. I could/would have rented the West course all along if it was just to try and do a race there. Granted the East is where the garages are and all that so it does have more of an attraction in that area. I'll have to see what MA does to make T1 viable before I can really even look into it. As things were last time I was there I didn't like the runoff and couldn't see a way to move the barrier that wouldn't affect West T10.

    Looks like Twins and Stock 1000 are still one race a weekend contrary to what they previously said.
    Wonder when we will see rules now...

    t11ravis huge carbon footprint

    Safe to assume for the 2 day rounds. Still holding out hope on the other 5.
