Default which track to go??

hi

i'm wondering if i should go to Infineon, Sonoma(5.5 hours) or Willow Springs(3.5 hours). This will be for NASA HPDE 2. I've done big willow twice. never done sonoma. I don't know anything about sonoma. Is it worth the extra travel time to hit up sonoma?

lodging is free at willow since my friend lives at lancaster. but i want to hit up as many different tracks as possible to broaden my horizon. would i learn more by going to sonoma or can i still learn a lot from willow springs?

i done 9 open track days. 1@buttonwillow, 2@big willow , 6@streets of willow

thanks

Not familiar with these tracks, but you'll always have room to learn more!

I think you already answered your question.

Learn what? Learn the line? Car control? Trigonometry? Learning is always subject to the student.

Personally I think Sears Point is a much more fun track.

If you have a chance, I would definitely recommend going to Infineon. Infineon is my favorite compared to the few other tracks I've been on: Laguna Seca, Thunderhill, Willow Springs, Street of Williow, and Buttonwillow. It is quite technical and has good elevation changes. Well worth the drive.

Go to Sonoma, or, if you're willing to make the trek, Thunderhill.

I would not choose Willow over Sears Point.

Enjoy.
