For fixed layouts, I prefer flex track - easier to lay smooth curves. Sectional track tends to result in a sharp transition from straight to curved, and with flex you can make smoother transitions. Flex track is also cheaper to buy and gives you more options in track planning - you're not restricted to the track pieces the manufacturer makes. I realise it's possible to cut sectional track, but if you do this, you might as well buy flex track and save money, as well as having fewer rail joints and therefore better electrical conductivity.
