Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Branches California Willowsprings or california speedway track day

After talking with steve at the pre run, he made a comment about how he was with a group that RENTED the track for the day. I am looking into the particulars, price, requirments etc.

http://www.willowspringsraceway.com/home/home.asp has information abotu how much it costs, but theres a lot of crap in there about insurance waivers and stuff which I think are for movie studios and crap.

However, there is a company that holds events there that give some racing instruction as well. They will set up private sessions for groups. I am inquiring about this as well as with willow springs directly.

I am curious to get some idea of how many people would realistically do this and how much youd be willing to spend to have the track to ourselves.

so list your name, and how much youd like to spend. At this point I am not restricting it to CEG memebers or even contours. Figure the more people we get the cheaper the price per person could be. Willowsprings seems more open to this so it will probably be there. Dont worry its only a 2 hour drive or so depending on where you live

I would like to do it, depending on price. the last time I was there, it was $75 for the day and I think each group got about 4/30minute runs in.

i have been wanting to hit up willowsprings for some time now. my father wants to bring the elise there and i would DEFINATLY be interested in renting the track depending on how many participants are around...

chris, can you find out if you can rent transmitters for TT's?

transmitters for TT's? Sorry Ary I dont know what that is, time trials?

The problem with the 75 is your thrown in wiht the mix of whoever signs up this would just be people we know.

I might be up for this, as Willow Springs is not too far from my house. Although if I remember correctly; for private track meets all you can get is a weekday, which would most likely knock a few people out of doing this. I would also suggest trying to get a day in the fall or winter as the summer is just way to hot. Todays high at my house is forecast to be about 112 degrees.

i no longer have my svt, but depending on when and how much im sure i could interest my friends with their cars (2.5rs, mini, 240sx)

Like I said this is just a general who would go thing. And I still need more information from them as well. It would definately not be until october at the earliest as it is just way to hot.

Like I said I dont care who goes at this point

these are the guys im looking at going through

right now its 150 for a 1 day event at Streets of willow and that is just for whoever signs up.

In their FAQ they do say that with 10-12 weeks notice they can set stuff up. I have sent an email and am waiting response.

This gives some teaching as well, which I woudl definately like to expereince since I have never ran on a track before.

ahh, well im not sure if they rent them, i will try to get more information and let you know
