Not sure about that - when's the last time you saw a slalom on a road
course? Or should we just call them multiple chicanes? ;)

On a road course, the "slalom" is called the "esses." At Sears Point they
are the downhill Turns 8, 9, and 10.
Neither Laguna Seca, Thunderhill, Willow Springs, Portland, Int'l,
Seattle/Pacifdic Raceway at Kent, nor Buttonwillow have an equivalent.
Although I suppose Laguna's "corkscrew" is sort of a slalom, "S" turn.
The only other "esses" I ever saw was the original Golden Gate Park
in San Francisco.
