In order...
VIR is very much at the top of my list - nice big area, plenty of track time
(almost too much track time!), free enduro, excellent weather, frickin'
AWESOME track.  The esses at speed are nearly a religious experience.  Not
thrilled about the entire paddock being paved as I have nowhere to drive
stakes into for my canopy now.

Mid-O would be a somewhat distant 2nd.  Haven't driven it in a while, neat
track, the overzealous security sounds to have been tamed.

Indy sounds very expensive, but would be of some interest.  Road course has no
long-term history, so that drops the interest for me.  But I've never driven
it so I'll try most anything once.

Grattan is one of my favorite tracks despite my history there, and it's far
enough north in Michigan that the weather is usually not too hot in August,
but I'm concerned about the paddock space.  When MG had their big event, it
was hard to get set up, my crew had to park outside the track and walk in.

Blackhawk is one of my home tracks, but doesn't seem like something I'd tow
across country for.  Has more character than it's utter lack of elevation
change would lead you to think.

I'm going to miss the Mosport event in June this year (they are putting
together a Triumph / MG challenge) as my eldest daughter is getting married in
June.  That's not mentioned but is another amazing track - fassttt!
