Every year the Motor Press Guild holds their Track Days event, gathering both journalists and auto makers in one spot with the goal of giving both parties the opportunity to connect and allow members of the press a chance to evaluate the latest from the brands that participate. This year had a particularly good turnout, giving us a chance to check out vehicles we haven’t had any seat time in as of yet, as well as one’s we’ve reviewed previously but haven’t had on track yet.
From an apples-to-apples perspective, some of these comparisons are flat-out incongruous – the field here ranges from a 707 horsepower muscle coupe to a four-door family sedan with performance aspirations. But the common thread, and what makes the back-to-back evaluation worthwhile, is the Big Willow course at Willow Springs International Raceway. With a fair amount of elevation change, sweepers, demanding tight corners, and a massive front straight, Big Willow is a great opportunity to see how each of these vehicles behaves when driven beyond what’s feasible on public streets.
