So-Cal RX Club Track Day / 7's-Only OPEN HOUSE & DYNO day - NOV 15th
Come out and ring your 8 out, see what this car can really do!
Alrighty.. here's the deal guys.. The So-Cal RX Club has worked with NASA to get our club track day together. We need at least 25 people to make the discount below possible. I had over 30 people interested earlier in the month, and I'm hoping this is still the case. Please e-mail ASAP if interested. Nor-Cal guys WELCOMED!
So-Cal RX Club Track Day / 7's-Only OPEN HOUSE & DYNO day
Join the caravan up to Buttonwillow and enjoy a whole day of track activity, open house and dyno runs at 7's-Only Racing. We are also hoping to get a few Rotary vendors up with their race cars for demo laps. Working on fun rides too.
>>>
Where: Buttonwillow Raceway
When: Saturday, November 15th. (8:00am - 6:00pm)
Cost: $120 track time + $35 *NASA membership TOTAL= $155.
Spectator Cost: $10.00 per person track fee (for non-participant cars)
>>>
*NASA membership will include one free year subscription to GRASSROOTS Motorsport Magazine. Also, the total price is a 20% discount off their regular prices.
NOTE: sign up will be via a special form, that NASA has provided the So-Cal RX Club. Please do "NOT" sign up via the NASA web site, or you will not recieve the special discounted price. E-mail me for details.
TRACK ACTIVITY & PARTICIPATION:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Participants will be encouraged to run in their own HPDE run level group, which are as follows:
Group One (1)
This is where you begin. This is one on one guidance from experienced racers, as you learn to control your car and yourself. Your mentor will provide you with guidance as you learn to drive at the limit. You will address how to approach a turn, the fast way around it, what gear should you be in, how to brake, and how to exit. The session generally includes a lead-follow session. Passing is very limited in the Group 1 Sessions.
Group Two (2)
Your mentor has determined you can drive on your own and with less supervision. You apply what you learned in the group 1 sessions. The pace is faster, and the passing rules are more relaxed.
Group Three (3)
You have progressed to the world of high performance driving. The passing rules in group 3 are not as strict. You must learn to share the track at high speeds with others.
Group Four (4)
Congratulations! You have made it, no passing restriction except those of good judgment and rules of the road etiquette. You and your peers are now experiencing the joys of doing it right in a safe environment! You can now enjoy high performance driving at its finest. Those that wish to can petition to apply for a competition license.
Requirements:
-Membership in NASA or a NASA sanctioned club
-Any car in safe operating condition (from Ferrari to Hyundai)
-Mufflers. Different tracks have different sound policies
-Roll bars in convertible autos
-Seat belts in good working order
-State driver's license
-Long sleeve shirt and pants (cotton is great)
-A helmet
-Knowledge of the Club Codes and Regulations
-At least 18 years of age (16 w/parental consent)

DYNO EVENT
Info on the dyno part of this event. "7s-Only Racing" has come through with some nice pricing for dyno pulls. The pricing is as follows:
$35 for the first pull and $5 each additional pull after that, while still strapped to the dyno. This is for pulls only, with "NO" tuning involved. Tom @ "7s-Only Racing" will work a separate price if tuning is wanted. For all of those wanting to see how much power there RXs arte making, here is your chance. It looks like we'll have a chance a bragging rights this year!! We are all those high powered RXs?!?!
Please email me if interested. Also, if you are going to do the track activity, please e-mail me ASAP, and I will send you the special entry form!
Thanks all,

Don't be afraid!
Rusell:
This is track lapping, not racing, so need for concern. This day is actually set up for 1st timers.
Group One (1)

Your mentor will provide you with guidance as you learn to drive at the limit.

Passing is very limited in the Group 1 Sessions.
NASA runs a very good program and will get you going in the right direction ASAP! Give it try. Don't worry, there will also be a few more 1st timers on hand!
ButtonWillow is in Bakersfield California (actually Buttonwillow, Ca.) but you get the picture.
Please e-mail me if interested!

Last Years Event
Guys,
I've gotten several calls and e-mails on this event... I just wanted to say that this posting was for the event we hosted LAST YEAR, 2003! We do not have any plans for this weekend in 2004.
