Laguna Seca 2006 ... let's go!

I'm looking to kick off 2006 with my usual annual track day at none other than Laguna Seca (courtesy of Speed Ventures). For those of you who have been hounding me all year long to set up a track event ... well, this is it! The ball's in your court now!

The event date is Friday, January 20, 2006.
Plz plan ahead now!

cost is $310 (currently)
$30 instructor fee (optional, but required for newbies)
$20 Timing Device (FREE comp'd)
Lunch is included

More details to follow.

We'll also probably do the tour of Nappa Valley. Taste a little wine and cheese. Overall it is going to be a fantastic weekend ... as always!






Let's see a show of interested here. Who's in?

Great idea - have fun!

My suspension should be well dialed in by then. Now to get some track wheels and brakes! What cost are we looking at for this track day?

Oh, and Napa Valley is quite far from Monterey, but I guess if you are already making the trek from SoCal, what's an extra 150 miles?

Thanks for setting this up Clint!

Y'all can wash your cars at my place if you want to scrub the bugs off! Blue tape is your friend though...

That's just Arash talking.
He's merely refering to one's adrenaline level when dropping your gut out sliding through the cork-screw.

No ... Napa hasn't been decided on just yet. We may decide to visit other places instead. Something different every year.

The cost of running at Laguna Seca is <b>currently</b> $330 and $30 for an instructor (required for a newbie or beginner). This includes an entire day of tracking at Laguna Seca from the moment they open the gate until they kick us out. Lunch is also included. We may be hooked up with free timing device ($20-30).
