It seems that the Google Street View car gets to have some fun sometimes – it’s not all about driving through dull neighbourhoods and capturing photo’s of drunks passed out on the pavements, or capturing images of people looking surprised leaving ‘adult stores’.

Google gained permission to take their street view car around Laguna Seca with the cars preparing for the US round of the American Le Mans season. They took 360 degree photos, and you can now take a virtual tour around the track and check out all the turns and famous features such as The Corkscrew (see photo above).

Try it out below – we have embedded the street view experience, so you can click your way around Laguna Seca. Click on the arrows on the map to move, or use the controls positioned at the top left of the window. We’ve started you off at the top of the corkscrew, but feel free to use the arrows to back up, or to start from any other point on the race track. The whole race track is available. Feel free to post your ‘lap times’ in the comments field if you are that way inclined
