<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Ooost @ Apr 19 2006, 12:32 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>There were many complaints that Laguna was too small for MotoGP bikes and Barber is even smaller.
ooost, laguna is smaller than barber bro. 2.38 for laguna, 2.30 for barber.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Ooost @ Apr 19 2006, 12:32 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>it would have to be at a big horsepower hungry track like Miller Motorsports Park or Road America.
miller would be the track i think, still not very close, but the pics i've seen of the place look spectacular! it's already fim homolagated & the track is 4.5 miles in it's longest configureation. the garages are state of the art & very large. supposedly something like 85% of the viewing spots u can see 100% of the track. no bad seats

& to top that off my wifes cousin lives 30 min away

as far as road america.... well i'd be nice but we both know that won't happen. to remote as u even stated in a previous thread & i dout they will spend the coin to upgrade to gp standards. but who knows, maybe

Laguna is shorter but it's not as tight, there are two portions where riders get above third gear, after turn 4 and the start/finish straight.

I've seen a few pictures from Miller and it looks absolutely amazing, I'm sure they are planning for some sort of an international race. Road America is making some major improvements at their facility to attract more "international championships" so I would assume they hope to get MotoGP when the rennovations are complete but I don't think they are doing enough to get approval safety wise.
