I just signed up for the NASA event at Buttonwillow. I'll be running in the slow-poke with supervision group (HPDE 1). Am I going to see anyone from this board there? It'd be nice to have some company...

I checked the website and was unable to find out what "nasa" stands for...?



If I was a little closer I'd go - unfortunately I think I'm at the farthest point from any track, [along the coast]. <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/sad.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />

It's "National Auto Sport Association" -- not to be confused with the more famous "National Aeronautics and Space Administration".



Yea.... going to a track is hard because they tend to be located in the middle of nowhere. But I'm trying to put some effort this year into "tightening the nut behind the steering wheel". <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/biggrin.gif" class="smilie" alt="" /> I'm going to head up there the night before and then put in two full days of seat time.



Plus our cars love being out there -- it's worth the drive.

Not going to the NASA event, but I will be at the PCASDR Time Trial event the weekend before June 3-4. You should think about coming to one of our events. It's a great group and we run about 6 events a year.

I just got back from a day at Thunderhill -- I must have more track time..... <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/biggrin.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />



I kept the PCA-SDR event in my calendar, but I'm afraid I have other obligations for that weekend.

Rich,



ButtonWillow (http://www.buttonwillowraceway.com) is 125 miles north of Los Angeles. depending on where you are in San Diego, that would make it 200 miles or so. Basically, it's about 4 hours north of San Diego (+/- traffic). It's a very nice track with great facilities and the weather is likely to be in the low 90's. It's a good spectators track as well, although not quite as good as Willow Springs. We will be driving all day Saturday and until about 2:00 Sunday.
