    Is school in session, oh crap I'm late again! I would love to see Watkins Glen, Road America or even Laguna Seca because they are true road courses. I live in a dream world were anything is possible!

    Just the opposite actually. An 8 pm start in Vegas would be 4 am in London if I did the conversion right. The night race only works in Asia because it changes the start time from 6 am in Europe (afternoon start in Asia) to an afternoon start for Europe. One of the main reasons that Brazil has closed the season for so many years is to make the final race prime time in Europe. Afternoon in the Americas results in an evening/night race in Europe.

    So Id say you probably aren't gonna see a night race in Vegas. So the question is: Is the city of lights gonna be as sexy at noontime?

    I think vagas is the best idea so far. But I'd like to see a street race in a city with land marks that everyone recognises so that people will think YEAHH that must be a cool city. Either that or laguna seca.

    I've always thought they should have a race on the coast. Either Long Beach or Miami Beach, OR both! USGP West & USGP EAST!

    +1 -- I second that. Bernie's considering lowering the GP hosting prices... one can only hope.
