I was wondering if anything was going to come out of the feasibility test done in 2003.
I love it!... I live 5 miles from the speedway.
Bring on MotoGP!

Good news!
Except I hate the road course at IMS. Is there any FIM laws about the proximity of concrete barriers as well? Because Turn 13 would be vicious if anyone came off there as its the fastest corner of the track followed by the concrete wall on the left.

I was about to say! Driver's get knocked out there depite being in an F1 car... I'd hate to think what could happen if there was a MotoGP mishap there.

One assumes perhaps, if running anti-clockwise, a chicane where the pitwall ends, sending the bikes onto the warm-up lane before rejoining the track at wha is the F1 tracks second last corner.

I can't imagine that a second GP in the US will be a plus. There are no tracks that seem appropriate. I have a hard time watching AMA for the simple reason that caution cones do not make a race track. (that and Matt Mladin) The Leguna GP is a stretch in my estimation. Further "americanization" of the season is really not something I look forward to either. I'm all for more American fans and better television coverage in the US. But the subtile differance between GP and AMA is a major reason I follow one and not the other.

Laguna and Indy, one with great layout but terrible facilities and the other with great facilities but terrible layout
I have no problem with having 2 USGPs but both the tracks need workI got my motorcycle jacket, but I'm walking all the time...

I would love it. Indy is much closer than california! I have gone to 4 out of 6 F1 races there and the atmosphere is pretty good, it would be a good event.
Wet conditions. Portuguese Autosport brought something to the table... the WRC2 crews are using a WRC spec tyre that is harder than the spec Meeke and other CPR runners are using.
