This the season for Laguna Seca
The rainy season means only one thing to us trackhounds. Laguna Seca is open to the wannabe's like us. I just signed up for laguna with NASA on the 19th and am thinking about hitting it again with HOD again in Feb. Anyone else going to do the corkscrew?

Google Mazda raceway + Laguna Seca + Corkscrew
This is the world famous Laguna Seca corkscrew, it's basically in your backyard, this is the N. California track we have been going to for years to see the real Indy cars (CART), Superbikes, & MOTO GP, the Monterrey Historic races with vintage race cars. In all the years I have been attending races here I have only seen the superbikes and Alex Zanardi have the ***** to pass in the corkscrew!!

Aim for the middle tree upon entry, flick her right and drift the car down until traction is regained at the bottom. Check your shorts and repeat again at the next lap

If you ever get a chance to drive 'Seca DO IT! It is a very special track. It has a certain aura to it the moment you arrive. The corkscrew is a trip, I can't think of a more entertaining section of track!
Daveh, why so excited about driving 'Seca in the rain??

So being that you are from the local area maybe you can provide me the pricing and other reqs, so that I too can experience the corkscrew as a driver, a lifetime fantasy for me.

I'm moving to Montery, CA in June, and looking forward to running Laguna Seca. Mostly, I drive with NASA in HPDE's (3/4), but I hit up open track days occasionally, as well.
I have to say that I have drivine Laguna Seca on Forza Motorsport 2, and that corkscrew scares me! I hit high speeds on the straight beforehand, and never can time my brake point correctly. First time I go there in real life, it will be a slow lap!!!
