I drove a formula vee there several years ago and it is a fun course. That carousel is a trip. they have what they call a carousel at Infineon, but I don't think it is as hairy as the one at Laguna Seca.

Speaking of racing. Who read the Mercury news this morning. There trying to get a road race to downtown SJ in July. They will be doing speeds over 150mph down Santa Clara Street. I hope that goes through. the engines are 2.6L Turbo V6 w/ 750hp. That should be awesome.

Darn good at it too! I can't tell you how disappointed I was when I missed that. I tell people at work that are into cars how you still turned a 19 and they can't believe it. Nice recovery. I'm bringing a video camera next time.
