Depends which way you go.

2195kms if you I-5 it. More if you take the scenic route. I got in for free last year but I'm sure a 3 day pass, General Admission was around $50 US and another $15 for a paddock pass. You can get general admission at the Shell stations in Monterrrey. At least you could last year. Laguna Seca has a website with all the info.

Don't bother paying for a grandstand seat cos the track has all kinds of vantage points you can walk around to. Just before the corkscrew is an excellent place to watch. They're at full throttle and you can hear the engines bouncing off the rev limiters.

I'm riding to the Calgary race this year. Ifyou leave an extra day early there's plenty of nice roads to ride through.

It'd even give your bikes a chance to blow out all the carbon from riding in the city all the time:D

Ditto gsxr6racer

I take offense to us not having top notch racers as well. Ever heard of Steve Crevier? He only won the AMA 600 Supersport crown and constantly got podium finishes that year on an outclassed TL1000R. John Cornwell use to race in the Canadian Series as well. He works for Ohlins Suspension and advises GP teams on suspension tuning. How about Miguel Duhammel?

I guess you weren't around when Westwood was running?

Gary Goodfellow beat Kevin Schwantz in the Trans Atlantic match races. Canada has some of the best riders anywhere. Sadly there's no support for them. That's cos some people don't know any better.

Why do Canadians always put their own down?
