in addition to rides in my car, Dave Lemon, who has multiple wins and track records at Buttonwillow, will be giving rides all day in his 1st gen Pro7 race car. he will also be driving his RX-8, and his 2nd gen E Production race car as well.

so hang around the Mazdatrix trailer, and catch a ride!

Last day would be when they sell out, it is limited to 70 cars.. currently 20 for sat, and 22 for sunday.

Can't wait to see your LS1 FC, You better take me for a spin around the track. hehe

I'll most likely have my SC by then, so will see how the FC does with alittle bit of boost.

What's up with the "Race" group? I remember a group of more dedicated race cars running a few sessions last year. But will they really be doing a head to head race this year? Who do you sign up with and what type of racing license is required? Rules and Regs?

I am assuming they want to sell out sunday with Mazda cars so saturday can be filled by any car. I wanted to go saturday so I can just hang out Sunday.

I'll email Chris.

Thanks.
