Willow Springs (Big Willow)

Rosamond, California · 3.94 km · 2.45 mi · clockwise

Willow Springs International Raceway in Rosamond, California is modeled here as Big Willow (2.5-mile road course), the nine-turn clockwise layout every motorcycle organizer runs — 3,940 m (2.45 mi) in the track model. All speeds, distances and lap times here are physics-simulation estimates from the track geometry, not measured data. The profile is fast nearly everywhere: the reference line never drops below 92 km/h (57 mph), a floor reached at Budweiser Balcony with Turn 5 less than a km/h behind. Rabbit's Ear and Turn 3 together gain 28.2 m (93 ft); Wing's Leg is flat out at up to 270 km/h (168 mph) on the liter bike, and the Sweeper holds 195 km/h (121 mph). Simulated laps: 83.74 s liter bike, 85.27 s supersport 600, 87.94 s middleweight twin.

Motorcycle track guide · simulation estimates · 2026-10-02

  • Layout: Big Willow (2.5-mile road course) — 3,940 m (2.45 mi) in the track model, 9 turns, run clockwise
  • Simulated lap estimates: 83.74 s liter bike / 85.27 s supersport 600 / 87.94 s middleweight twin
  • Simulated average speed: 160.0–168.0 km/h (99–104 mph) depending on bike class
  • Slowest simulated point: Turn 4, Budweiser Balcony, at 92 km/h (57 mph) — Turn 5 is within 1 km/h of it
  • Fastest simulated point: Turn 7, Wing's Leg, flat out at 244 km/h (151 mph) supersport 600 / 270 km/h (168 mph) liter bike / 216 km/h (134 mph) twin
  • Longest corner: Turn 2, Rabbit's Ear, 441 m of arc gaining 16.4 m (54 ft)
  • Tightest radius: Turn 4 at 55.8 m, with Turn 5 at 56.6 m; widest braked corner: the Sweeper at 249.7 m
  • Longest simulated braking zone: 174 m on the liter bike into Turn 1, Castrol Corner

The lap opens with Castrol Corner, a 192 m left of 94.2 m effective radius that rises 1.5 m (5 ft). It is the longest braking event on the circuit in the simulation: the liter bike begins slowing 174 m out, the supersport 600 117 m and the twin 72 m, from a 157 km/h (97 mph) entry to a 119 km/h (74 mph) minimum shared by all classes. The estimated exit — 161 km/h (100 mph) on the 600 and liter bike, 157 km/h (98 mph) on the twin — is at or above the entry speed and feeds straight into the long climb of Rabbit's Ear.

Rabbit's Ear is the longest corner on the card at 441 m of right-hand arc, and the biggest climb: 16.4 m (54 ft) at a 128.8 m effective radius. The simulation handles it as a sustained fast corner rather than a stop — braking runs 87 m on the 600, 102 m on the liter bike and 69 m on the twin from a 147 km/h (91 mph) entry, and the minimum holds at 139 km/h (87 mph), the fourth-highest of the braked corners after the Sweeper, Monroe Ridge and Turn Nine. The model exits at 160 km/h (99 mph) on the two larger classes and 159 km/h (99 mph) on the twin.

Turn 3 continues the climb, a 150 m left at a 61.2 m effective radius gaining another 11.8 m (39 ft) — the steepest grade on the lap for its length. Braking starts 84 m out on the supersport 600, 99 m on the liter bike and 63 m on the twin from a 131 km/h (82 mph) entry, down to a 96 km/h (59 mph) minimum. The exit reads 117 km/h (73 mph) on the 600 and liter bike and 115 km/h (72 mph) on the twin — below the entry speed, with the grade and the tighter Budweiser Balcony immediately ahead capping the drive in the estimate.
