Default Willow Springs, CA Track Day



Okay, I thought this was a cool shot. One of the guys is a rock musician and likes to mix up his helmet choices.
I'll post again the next time we do it.
NO ONE attended from the CF, must say kind of disappointed. Come on guys next time for sure right?
I did around 90 laps myself. It was a great day. The rain didn't start till around 4:00 and there was very little wind.

Perhaps they are concerned about the extra CO2 generated at a track day...LOL. If it were closer to me, I would be there for sure...

Post or move this to the SO CA section. You should get a lot of interest there as a number of guys run in the Corvette Challenge series. Also posting the price and date would be a good idea. I doubt anyone will drive all the way out to Willow without registering and if they do

In order to address those concerns large vacuums are strategically located on the track. The end result is markedly improved air quality at the end of the track day. Strange but true.

Default Just wrong day

I would be completely interested, as I am stationed at Edwards AFB(on the same street as Willow) But I am down in SD for work on the 19th... I wish this was the following week.

Sounds like a great time, cool for you setting that up. Wish I was closer, not sure how the A6 would hold up though?

If you're interested in attending tomorrow I need to get your names today on the list.
Contact me so I can get your name down and the guard will let you in.

I've been there four times recently with Kailo's Open Track Racing. I had a blast every time! Which company organized your track day?

This sounds like a lot of fun, I would have been down for this if it weren't on the opposite side of the country

I was too busy driving to take a lot of photos.
There's some video footage that a passenger took during one of my go rounds. I'll see if I can get that going later today or tomorrow.

Fun track. I was there a couple weeks ago with ExtremeSpeed.

On Sunday I'll be running with Speed Ventures at Auto Club Speedway.

I'll keep a look out for your posts

I agree. I find turns 3 through 6 to be very engaging.
