NASA is doing a 2 day event at Putnam Park the same weekend. Anyone care to compare the 2 tracks and suggest which one is more fun?

well.......... These are 2 completely deferent style tracks.

USA International Raceway in Shawano is actually a go-kart track. It is a 1 mile track with 18 turns!!!!!!!!!!! One could almost compare it with an auto cross. There are 2 small strait aways where you will see top speed's of around 65mph followed by some very hard braking

I have raced this track once before and had a BLAST!!!! It's a very fun tight little track with a great group of people to race it.

Putnam park on the other hand I really know nothing about
