Extreme speed@ willow springs Dec. 15-16th
I seen on their Facebook page for 90$ they are running the streets... Is anyone going to this... I've been to a trackday before at the streets, but on my bike.. I haven't done a trackday in a car... Ever... So I'd really like to find some people that are going that really could give some good pointers... Although the point is to get around as fast and quick as possible.. My main goal is to learn my car, get a good feel for it.. And have some fun..

Hey, I have not been on the streets course but did a track day with extreme speed on the big course. I'm planning on coming at least one day. I've only done a few track days with speed ventures at the auto club speedway but got bit and can't stop now. I felt that extreme speed is a well run event but not quite as "true" beginner friendly as speedventures. I also like the download sessions that speedventures uses. Never the less extreme speed is organized and way cheaper. Hopefully we can get a group of frs/brz going.

I registered for Saturday, the 15th, just trying to decide if I want to do Sunday too. I've had to pass up a few track days because I'm in law school so I have to get track days in where I can.

I ran with ExtremeSpeed a few weeks ago on the Streets and had a great time. The event was well organized and everyone running was very nice. It's definately worth the time and money and with the deal posted above it's a must-do.
I really want to, just not sure if my schedule will allow it.

I just signed up for Saturday! Any chance I can get a ride along. Would love to see how a car with suspension handles. I saw you on Nov 25th and you were really hauling the mail.
