Track Day - anyone ever go to one of these? (this one Willow Springs)

[Rabbit16v@attbi.com (Rabbit16v)]

Sounds AWESOME!!!  I think of myself as a decent driver, so now I can
actually find out.  I won't make it to this event (unless I want to drive my
diesel truck which might still be kinda fun) but I am hoping that my car is
ready to go by this summer.  Thanks for the tips, Rick, I will see if I can
do a little track help!
