I thinkThunderhill is a bit more tricky than Laguna and go out on a limb and say t-hill is more fun than laguna. Anyone else feel the same way?

I totally agree. thill is way more fun. I've track day'd both several times and while Laguna is novel in that it's so famous, it's actually more fun at thill.

Oh... the corkscrew is pretty novel, but Laguna just feels more turn-straight-turn-straight-turn-straight, etc. Infineon is the most fun because the turns run into each other. Thill has lots of variety.

That bumpy patch through the bypass is pretty fun too. But I really enjoy the cyclone and turn 9 running the regular layout.
