Meet up and ride to Motogp Laguna Seca together?

first time going to laguna seca.
any tips on where the best spot is to view the race?

preferably someplace where there are lots of overtaking attempts.

any info greatly appreciated cheers.
 
I'll be there pumped for the Grand Prix but honestly equally pumped to watch the AMA guys... really been into the superbike class this year and the sportbike/supersport has been exciting as well.
 
If you cannot find tickets, try this Shell Station.

They buy general tickets and sell them to dumb-asses who wait too long.

Except for Rossi in MotoGP, :teeth there not much passing in the corkscrew. Turns 11,5,2 are the usual spots.

The racing should be good. There are a couple of supersport guys that are fast at Laguna and know it well. Zemke is very good at Laguna.
 
In the past I would ride down for all 3-days, but not able to do that this year so will be watching the TV on Sunday.

Coming home from work last night while in traffic on 19th, saw a few bikes packed up and heading south mostly towards Monterey....

For those going, ride safe and have a great time

and just remember when you get close to Monterey, keep in mind that Highway 1 becomes one big speed trap....

If you sit on the big hill, you can watch most of the track. If you're near the top, you can go over the top to see the leaders go through the corkscrew then go back to the other side to see them over most of the track. That's how I usually do it. After the first 10 laps they are pretty spread out, so you can sit down on the big hill and watch the rest of the race sans the corkscrew (live), but if you bring binoculars, you can watch it on the jumbo tron when they go through the corkscrew..

Every person seems to have their own favorite place/way to watch the race.
 
I have never been to MotoGP and been asking around but have not gotten an answer, I was wondering is it worth it to buy the paddock pass for sunday?

Simple answer: YES. It's usually easier to get autographs, take pictures or what not on Saturday though, the riders will be in and out of the garages and you'll see them more than Sunday.

Apparently, no one is buying your trolling, dude.
