It looks like I'm going to be in San Diego for a couple of weeks in June/July, can anyone advise me if there is a circuit nearby where I can do a trackday. I'll need to hire a bike too.
I reckon Laguna Seca is a little too far away right?
Thanks

California Speedway (Fontana)
http://www.fastrackriders.com are the usual track day operators. Awesome facility but a bit pricey (high overhead costs - not Fastrack but the race track itself)

Post up there as a newbie. It's not as hostile as the typical sportbike board. We have a few folks coming out to race once or twice a year.

Also,just this year an operator started renting 250cc Ninja for the Ninja spec class for $250 per day - all inclusive (tires and fuel) - heck, your racing license might transfer and if nothing else, the race practice day (Saturday) - all you need is a license to get out and practice. CHEAP track day that way. Check first to make certain your license transfers and you don't have to take new racer school.

Many track day operations at Willow that offer track days. WSMC is the only regular racing organization there.

Laguna might be too far - about 8 hour drive from Sandy Eggo. It is obscenely expensive and the noise restrictions are oppressive.

For the length of that drive, there's Las Vegas, Spring Mountain (Pahrump) and Reno Fernley. Fastrack Riders also do a few days in Vegas.
