I could almost guarantee it will be in the 80's the second week of December here. What's it like the second week of December in Virginia, RJ?

Cold.. very cold.. much like most of the rest of the country.. which is what makes a JGTC trip for vacation sound even better..

From and fan and viewer's perspetive, you will probably get more for less at Cal Speedway compared to what we get here in Japan. The paddock pass is an extra $50, Pit walk is an extra $10, one day ticket is $50, 2 day is $80.

I say it depends on what you want to see and hear. Anywhere along the main oval you will be able to see and hear the cars running at 100% throttle. Just at the end of the oval, where they enter the infield, you can hear the sounds of the downshift.

I think the best seats are in section 10. You will see the end of the straight, and most of the in field.

I usually dont like being on the front straights, cause it gets boring watching cars zoom by... the action is in the braking zones IMO, and Section 10's got 3 to see.

On Sundays drift day, I think the "left" side of section 01 would be the place to be. The esses should be fun to watch...

Im gonna get my Tickets now...

We'll have to organize a H-T meetup near the beer cart. We can all wear little tags that say "Hello, my name is: (Insert H-T Moniker Here)" Ha ha!
