Steve -

Of the three series, the BBORR is by far the most difficult.  Very challenging 
course to run at speed.  Course record is an average of 167mph, set by a NASCAR 
car.  As far as the venue goes, people out in West Texas are great.  You can 
buy beer in a gas station, but not in a restaurant.  Strange place, but a lot 
of fun.

Silver State is a very easy course.  Even in the 150mph class, you can run 95% 
of it on cruise control.  Course record is an average of 207mph, if I remember 
correctly.  Quite a difference.  But the SSCC does have a great venue (Las 
Vegas and Ely NV).  Great social aspects.

USAS is somewhere in between.  Their courses (three of them) are challenging, 
but not nearly as hard as Big Bend.  Venues are good.  People are great.
