I looked at the Sutherland course and if it’s the one I saw it’s like steep downhill then steep climb over and over.

Heffron is pretty flat, cross winds and fast corners.

For NorCal races, Sutherland would be my weakness and Heffron would be my strength.

It is. However, you get a fairly fast and short downhill and get enough momentum to get over an even shorter steep bit. Then it is an all out power to the line, over the next 30 seconds or so.
