<<I guess the people who did the rating never got to Road America...>>
They probably didn't. =
However I have raced at both Laguna and Bathurst in a FFand would put
Bathurst well ahead in the challenge stakes. The place is absolutely
awesome whereas Laguna is just a great place for a motor race!
I'm sure you don't want to hear this but Bathurst also has a great
reputation for destroying the reputations of many 'great' american driver=
s.
Over the years people like Johnny Rutherford and this year Scott Pruett
have all driven round well off the pace. =
The reality is not that they are other than great drivers, but rather tha=

you simply can't learn Bathurst in the usual 20 laps. To quote BTCC
champion Alain Menu this year in the Williams Renault Laguna "You can't
learn Bathurst in 3 hours"
Others perhaps can do your comparison with Road America ... or why don't
you all come over and have a race with us?
All the best
