    ButtonWillow Track Day April 30

    From Willow to Buttonwillow..

    We are looking for 5-10 SAFE drivers to join us at Buttonwillow for a day of High Performance Driver Ed. Minimum number of drivers will be about 24...MAX will be 35

    No timing, no wheel to wheel racing, passing on straights with point by. We are trying to make this safer than driving you car on city streets

    Cost is $300 for the 24 drivers. If we hit 35 drivers, it goes down to $200.00 This is NOT a money making day, just trying to break even.

    The money goes to track, insurance, ambulance and corner workers.

    Track Day insurance for your car is available. $67.00 dollars total for $10,000.00 coverage, 5% deductible

    Sign up here, PM me for details

    Ray,
    My group of three is now down to one, me! I'm pretty likely but am waiting for a possible shoe to drop. In meantime, do you generally go out the night before and if so where do people stay? Motel 6? Or do most folks drive up early in the AM. Thanks,
    Jim taylor

    Soft sell, R Gruppe track configuration.
    We'll use the Turn 10 sweeper, not the the Star Mazda turn.
    A link to Hank Watt's fantastic tips for driving Buttonwillow, turn by turn.
    21 drivers? Like a day at Disneyland with no lines.
