Default SpeedVentures at Buttonwillow April 15th, 2005!

Our next event is Buttonwillow Raceway; April 15th, 2005
Price: $160 one day ( + $30 instructor fee required for first-timers)

Duration: 1 day 2.5 hours of track time per group!**

Track: Buttonwillow Raceway (near Bakersfield)

Registration is open: http://www.speedventures.net/event_forms.asp

Timing: Transponders are available for rental for this event


Event Info:

At 3 miles, Buttonwillow is the longest and most technical track in the Los
Angeles area. With twenty-three turns, three elevation changes, the banked
"Riverside" sweeper, and a perfect drift over "Lost Hill" (AKA "Magic
Mountain"), Buttonwillow offers both a unique learning environment, and a
challenge to advanced drivers.

We will be running #13 CCW as highlighted in yellow below. This track is
suitable for street cars, though we suggest that the Riverside turn should
be approached at conservative speeds of 70-80 mph in cars without race
rollover protection. The remainder of the turns on this track are
moderate-speed (35 - 70mph). Most Turns have wide runoff areas, clear of
major obstacles.

There will be 3 run groups at this event with limited registration to keep
traffic light. click here for the schedule.




This is a great deal at an excellent track. If you're interested, please see
this page for registration.

**Note - Details of this event are subject to change. Event will run rain or
shine.

I'm planning to be there on Tax Day, if the FTB doesn't demand too much of my money.

John, you guys put on great events - very well organized.

Bob
