Laguna Seca Raceway?

Has anyone here been to Laguna Seca in Monterey, California? If so, what are your impressions of this circuit compared to Sears Point in Napa or Watkins Glen?

Re: Laguna Seca Raceway?

I have only been to Watkins Glen, and then only on a non raceday. The others only by video/TV, so I'm not qualified to answer this question from personal experience.

But a couple of general observations: Infineon (Sears Point) is the more easily accessible of the 3 'cause there's an Interstate Highway just outside the gates while the other two require significant "meandering" on local roads/highways to reach the track. Scenery-wise, it's a toss up between Laguna Seca and Watkins Glen, tho my preference is the Glen. I believe the Glen also has the greatest altitude variation of the track surface at some 120 feet.
