Thumbs up Willow Springs Track Event/Meet April 4th!

Well everyone, I know it’s been a while, but I have finally managed to schedule a track event for us. Thursday, April 4th, at Willow Springs, we will be joined by several Ferrari owners in a combined track lesson event. The event will be fully catered by a gourmet company as well as include about an hour of free-spirited/race driving by the instructors for us to watch. In terms of the actual lesson, it will be an all-day event, in which you can have as much one-on-one track time with a certified racing instructor as you wish. I do not yet know the actual cost of the event, however it will likely be around $500. If you are interested in attending, please let me know as soon as possible, so I can reserve a slot for you.

I plan on doing this as often as possible. I did not choose Thursday, but it came available yesterday, and I couldn't pass it up. I'm sure there will be weekend ones in the future.

What driver skill level is this event targeting? This would be my first so I would need lots of instructor time?

The school is designed for drivers of all different skill levels. You will have a personal one-on-one instructor, with as much driving time as you desire. You can easily have over 5 hrs of instruction if you desire.
