best track in socal?
 
what are your opinions? i dont care enough to make a poll and ive only ever driven on sows but im working on changing that. i guess im just wondering what tracks are worth the weekend and the money.

adams is down the street from me in riverside... but that's not really a full race course... more of just a tight drift/go kart course

ive been there but never driven. i dont know if i would with the fact that there is just zero runoff and you get little mini cliffs instead of curbs. that place just seems to have too much downside for how little upside it has. seems like an autox to me except with more hazards.

Autox with more hazards.

Sounds pretty awesome to me lol.

But track days/weekends are COMPLETLEY WORTH IT. You will be addicted

Depends on what you're looking for.

Fast track, nothing beats Big Willow.

Buttonwillow has enough configurations and enough changes to challenge an all-around car. Chuckwalla is newer and more "fun", but in the middle of nowhere.

Auto Club Roval is good mix of high and low speeds, but zero elevation change and mostly just flat (minus the oval part).

Horsethief Mile is mostly fun for drifting.

Everything else is out of reach (LBGP) or not really meant for anything other than drifting.

Chuckwalla - favorite larger track
SOW - favorite small, tight track
Big Willow - least favorite
Buttonwillow - fun, but lots of ego
AAA - roval gets a bit old, but the infield is pretty fun

Usually, Buttonwillow, SoW, and CVR are good get into tracking. Move onto WSIR and ACS when you understand how to handle your car under higher speed cornering.

What is CVR? Sorry. And how much per day or hourly? Thanks :)
