Default Buttonwillow Track event - Jan 26 & 27th Registration now active!

I am excited to announce our next event, Buttonwillow Raceway on January 26th & 27th, 2002!

At 3 miles, Buttonwillow is the longest and most technical track in the Los Angeles area. With twenty-three turns, three major elevation changes, the banked "Riverside" sweeper, and a perfect drift over "Lost Hill" (AKA "Magic Mountain"), Buttonwillow offers both a unique learning environment, and a challenge to advanced drivers. We will be running the full track in race configuration #1, clockwise, as highlighted in yellow below.

We will have timing via AMB transponders at this event, and it will be the first in our season-long time-trials, The S2000 Challenge.

As always, more information on the event is available at http://www.wurthmotorsports.com, and we have a thread going about The S2000 Challenge in the Racing & Competition forum: https://www.s2ki.com/forums/showthread.php?...?threadid=35870

Hope to see you there!

It's $110 for one day, $200 for both days. You'll get 5 x 30 minute run sessions per day, so 2.5 hours. And yes, it's definitely the most intricate and interesting track in socal.

Fluxen, Are the AMB transponders supplied or do we have to purchase them?

There are a limited quantity for rent, or you can buy them, it's up to you. Rent for the Transponder is $20, and purchase price is right around $300 (we don't know exactly until we figure out how many we're going to buy). We're basically going to sell them at cost, at any rate.
