As the title reads.

I havnt raced in heaps of tracks... i think about 6 different tracks but my favourite is sepang. Nice fast corners and sweepers are awesome fun, and its smooth.

Arizona, USA. We have an exact mirror copy of Suzuka! :lol:

If Japan is not considered Asian, please disregard.

Now that's cool.. any reason why they made a mirror copy rather than an exact copy?

Here's Suzuka viewed from about the same angle:

My favorite tracks in order(kinda):
Kota Bharu,
Kolhapur,
Carmona,
Shah Alam,
Surabaya,
Sepang.

Sepang is cool but I think it's downfall is that the driver doesn't make enough of a difference.

I can only guess, but it may be because of how much and the type of vegetation that had to be cleared. Its illegal or costly to more or remove some plants or percent of those plants in an area. So maybe mirror affected less existing plants.

Or maybe its because we drive on the opposite side of the road in USA than Japan! :lol:

I'd go for:

1) Sepang (although do agree with Mikko that it's more about the set-up and power). But it's great to drive. Partuclarly good for endurance races
2) Surabaya
3) Langkawi. yes I know it's got some seriously bumpy parts but it's fun
4) Kota Baru

Funny how no-one's mentioned Elite..... particularly as it's the place we raced the most over the last 2-3 years

Oh yeh forgot about elite.. as a track to drive it's pretty cool, and you really have to setup your overtaking moves to make them stick, no easy cake there! The atmosphere is kinda dull for some reason, and the safety isn't there-> especially when driving the track backwards but oh man is it cool to drive the wrong way! Turn 1 which become the last corner when backwards is :shock:

Surabaya has awesome sections but the lap goes by sooo fast.
