lol I know man. I realistically wanted to take a break but my g/f wanted to do this and I really like this track so I said screw it... it's just money right??? They are not the only ones who put stuff on, I think the BMW guys do events too

If it is capped or will for sure a smaller group, then I would consider this, but for $195 anything over 50 is too many. Know anyone who has done this Buttonwillow event before?

Hey Sean, not sure about how many they sign up. Call them tomorrow and ask them. I asked the girl on the phone last week and she told me they have 20-50 people typically.

Hey Jon!!!! So glad you came out man. You guys looked great on Saturday
Track is like crack, that's what my friends tell me! BW is fun, but far away, that's my rub
I think if you can get out 2-4 times a year that will get it "out of your system".

^^ Yup.

Mike, I was doing some research on other car forums and it seems like you get a decent amount of time on the track, not just doing side drills. Ill keep you updated if I can make this [pending any work projects]

Sounds good Sean. PM/call me if you like.
