Laguna Seca — Attraction in Seaside

The natural terrain, elevation changes, the world famous corkscrew, we did 1:29 here with GT4RS Turn 1 the frontstraight has some kink, when doing 120, need to do it right; Turn 2 Andretti hairpin, double Apex with 180 degree. Breaking zone is downhill, breaking from 130, pretty dramatic; Turn 3 your mind tell you it is 90 degrees, it is actually tighter than 90 degrees so everyone tends to carry too much speed in then it is difficult to get fast out of it; Turn 4 righthander, the opposite of turn 3, less than 90 degrees can go scarily fast; Turn 5 lefthander, start to going up hill, a lot of camber, flat break zone. A lot of grip in the corner itself. Sound limit right after turn 5, therefore Laguna pipes 😝 Turn 6 a high pressure corner. You are so far uphill, the apex corner kinda fix down.

You have to get your car down the apex carry the proper speed, if too fast and you don’t get down there you will probably go off the track. Turn 7 kink to the corkscrew. Drive up hill more, big breaking zone, hill actually with a little crest you can break super hard into. Feel like driving off the cliff, slow corner 35 mph naturally slow down more than you need do coz your brain tell you it can’t see anything. Turn 8 Corkscrew; Turn 9 Rainey curve, complicated technical corner, super down hill. Track is kinda falling away from you the whole time. Everything of the car feels nervous and unsettling when it wants to gain speed on its own etc Turn 10 the opposite, still going down a little, so bank in camber, you can totally mess up the entry to 10 and then the turn can sneak you Turn 11 pretty...

Was reminiscing over my pictures and videos from the 2013 MotoGP race.

Back then I was an expat living in Mumbai, India and flew into the US along with my dad who flew in from Scotland to see this race and the circuit.

Having been to Indy (yuck, 🤢 ), COTA at least 3 times, Cataluña (2008 Rossi v Jorge anyone), Donnington and Mugello, Laguna Seca was certain the circuit that we wanted to head to

Beautiful circuit, loved the facilites, loved the atmosphere. Easy to get to and nearby town had great places to eat and stay.
