Rode to work on Friday, then it got cold this weekend, and started raining today, so I said screw it and drove...

Well, the day before that was the day you would have been there, on the Lightning course.

In fact, this is likely right around the last time I rode my bike

A lot of people look at my like i have ten heads when I say this, but I think I liked lightning better.

It's got some great elevation changes between turn 1 and 2, and right at the apex of 5. some really quick sections, some great trailbraking zones, and a huge lightbulb before you're hitting the kink onto the straight.

Thunderbolt is awesome too though... thunderbolt would definitely be a little safer for racing though, lightning is a little tighter and there is a barrier on the outside of the lightbulb. The other cool thing about thunderbolt is the section before the straight.... long sweeping left, then a chicane hard on the gas, then under the bridge and HARD fucking right at 120mph on the throttle... tits.

Overall I'd say lightning though.

I think I have a youtube of me riding lightning on my buddy's 636 and he's on my r6 let me dig it up.
