Track day at Willow Springs.

My friend and I have a track day organized at Willow Springs big track if anybody is interested.
Here are some of the details:

SIGNUPS WILLOW SPRINGS ( ROAD COURSE ) ( so - California )
*Date is Monday March 23 , 2009 , * start time is 8:00am - 5pm. this will be
on the "big track".

The fee for the track day will be ~$145 a car / 45 CAR CAP. ( cost will
depend on number of sign ups)
Please DO NOT send money at this time. Just a reply if you wish to retain
spot(s) on the list. If you have a friend who wants to drive his/her car
please say so on your reply. All makes of cars welcome. We will be running
3 group system, ½ hour each run group. I'm trying for lower car count and
more track time.
No Passengers allowed unless a licensed instructor is in the car.
All cars welcome , Rag tops must have roll bar ( factory roll bar ok )
This is a practice event , we will be doing "hotlaps" all day. No timing
unless you bring your own.
Basic tech on your car like at an autocross.

Let me know if anybody is interested.
Thanks,
Gary

all you need is a crash helmet to take part. There will be instructors at the track on the day if you need any guidance or help with anything. Please let me know if you need anything else or want to sign up.
