    I remember Indycars were racing there, right? It's an okay track, but not as good as our Long Beach streets!

    I'd really love if F-1 could come back to Los Angeles... because there's no way I'm traveling with the family anywhere to see an F1 race since they are not racing fans..., but even if they do come, there's no guarantee that I can afford them tickets!!! Having a family sucks in this respect...

    I also wish to see F1 racing on Laguna Seca someday..., but that'll probably never happen.

    Not a F1 approved track, corkscrew and run off areas problems.

    I guess it's different when you live in the area

    Pittsburgh would be great for a street course. The air that the cars would get when launching off the cobblestone and into pot holes would have high entertainment value.

    Why not Homestead? The road course looks like it was designed by Tilke.

    Surfers Paradise was a rip-snorter of a track. Now it is permanently changed with tram lines running along the southern end. The V8s only use the northern half of it now. And I should remind you all that Albert Park is another street circuit, except this one is set in a park, so it’s more flowing than an inner city track, with plenty of interesting corners.

    The obvious daddy of street circuits is Long Beach. Plenty of that layout is nice and wide and the big right hander at turn 6 (or 7?) is a fantastic slidey off-camber joint with heaps of challenge. But who can forget Cleveland Airport? I don’t recall there being a single boring moment when CART used to race there in that golden era. All temporary tracks should be built on 20-car-wide runways.
