If I could only do one, which one should I do and why?

Jennings GP - November 28
The track in Jennings, FL is a motorcycle only facility that has a highly technical layout featuring a long section of switchbacks and a couple of long sweeping turns. It is a great place to learn direction changes and rewards a smooth riding style with lots of corner speed.

Homestead Miami Speedway - November 30
Homestead has a little bit of everything. There are 4 separate straights, 2 of which lead to fast sweeping turns and 2 that lead to big braking areas. Homestead is great for learning proper body position for carrying roll speed as well as for mastering the skills for slowing the bike down in a hurry.

Never ridden at either, but based on what I've heard from friends that have is: most perfer Jennings over Homestead at least from a "riders" standpoint.
