Your saying you have a friend that owns a track, and would allow all of us or any of us to use it for $300 for a weekend?

Is that each or total?

If its total, then count me in. Though it will be my first time.

If its each. Lets see how many people first want to join, and if anyone would like to help a noob like me.

As i said its my first time, so...

Please give me your guidence.

Yeah but that track at Mazfest is going to be PACKED. This is my first time tracking and I rather just go with a few 8's and get a feel for a track.

Any track event that you sign up at will likely be packed and with all makes of cars.
There will be alot of first runners at Mazfest. Why not run with an all Mazda crowd? You can get free ride alongs and instruction. There are a couple of 8's signed up... join in!

Hmmm very tempting but Buttonwillow is about 200 miles from me! If my whole weekend is free and I can get a hotel then I might cruise out.

I am watching JDM BestMotoring in which Tsuchiya is driving a Cayman S at Willow Springs...

I am not going to translate what he says about the track...

What is Willow spring like to you. Look fun on video
