SpeedVentures S2000 Challenge at Buttonwillow - 9-20-2002!
Friday at Buttonwillow; September 20th, 2002
Price: $125 ( + $20 instructor fee required for novices )
Duration: 1 day: 2.5 hours of track time per group!**
Track: Buttonwillow Raceway (near Bakersfield)
Registration: Registration online at http://speedventures.net/event_forms.asp
Event Info:
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, counter-clockwise, as highlighted in yellow below. This track is suitable for street cars, though we suggest that the Riverside turn should be approached at conservative speeds of 70-80 mph in cars without race rollover protection. The remainder of the turns on this track are moderate-speed (35 - 70mph). Turns have wide runoff areas, clear of major obstacles.
There will be three run groups at this event, and registration is limited to keep traffic light.
Potential Bonus: We are attempting to work out a deal to allow single dyno pulls at the track for people at discount prices (something less than $30). If you are interested, please mention it in the "comments" field of your registration form, and we'll get back to you about it. Thanks!
This is a great deal at an excellent track. If you're interested, please see for registration.

Good deal, Dave. I doubt it'll be too hot, it's almost in October, so it may be the last event that's a *certain* no-rain day.
Anyway, we've got a good number of the usual S2ki suspects already signed up, but we're still missing a lot of you guys. C'mon, let's get this event rolling!
As a side note, Aaron will be missing this event (going to England for a friend's wedding), so it's a freebie bump up for everyone in the Mod-R and T8 points race with only 3 events to go in the season...so take advantage of it.
