Default Buttonwillow Performance Driving Clinic Feb 27

Hey Everyone! I'll be back in the US on the 12th and have been itching to go driving. Buttonwillow has a performance driving clinic that they throw a couple of times a year where they do a classroom session for a couple of hours in the morning, then you get to have at it on the track for the remainder of the day. one of the most valuable parts of the clinic is that you get an instructor to not only sit next to you to help you with line, but they will also drive your car to scare the **** out of you and show you the proper way to drive.

I think this would be a great event for beginners and vets alike since Buttonwillow isn't a common track to go to, and hell, all of us can use some brushing up on driving technique.

Here's the link. http://www.buttonwillowraceway.com/clinic.htm

Price - $225 for the day

let me know if you're interested and i'll keep you in the loop for caravanning and possibily getting rooms for the night (even though its only 3 hours away, leaving a 5am sort of sucks when you want to keep awake for the next 8 hours)

Going 0-140 in 14 sec's a lot scarier than 40+ seconds

t0e,

edit:
Darn, found out we have previous plans, so now it is back to the fast lane driving school in March. Very much would like to have joined you, I must make it next time around, and would welcome you joining me at fast lane.
