Other than "why the hell would they want to make sixteen thousand different configurations?"Quote:

Depends what they want to use it for.Quote:

I don't like a road course for autocrossers. The transition into the Patriot section at VIR just does not flow. Not for me at least.
I wouldn't mind a track within 3 hours away.
Isn't that kind of what Shenandoah has been likened to?Quote:

Racing is fine, but having driver training almost 5 days a week really helps pay the bills. :)
Especially when the government has deep pockets.Quote:

And, what's wrong with turns? That's where you get to have fun.
No, they didn't ask me about track configurations, but being an autoxer at heart, I sure won't complain.
It's not the turns, it's the "see how often we can change the track" factor. :pQuote:

Amen Terry! If I could I would drive a different track every event. The most fun is trying to master a new track your first session.Quote:
