2013 FT86CUP *bonus round* Streets of Willow Springs, 5/26/2013

Introduction thread here[/I]

This bonus round of the 2013 FT86 Cup will be held at the Streets of Willow Springs. SoWS is a 1.8 mile technical course, challenging the handling limits of cars, and is frequently featured on Motor Trend's comparison videos, and also hosts several magazine competitions a year, including Import Tuner's FR challenge, as well as European Car's Euro Car shootout.




As always, the FT86 Cup is geared toward the grassroots drivers, encouraging both veterans and beginners alike to come enjoy a day at the track.

Signups are available at www.extremespeedtrackevents.com with coupon code "FT86CUP". This will bring the event price down to $90, and includes timing and a lunch credit!

Please give a shout out to Berk Technology, who has signed on as our title sponsor. They will be giving out prizes throughout the year!
@CounterSpace Garage and @robispec will both be present to give suspension tuning tips, demonstrations of the FR-S and BRZ's capability, and ride-alongs!

Wish I had the money to go to that track already!!! We're moving next month so funds are a bit tight.

Is this $90 total??? I've never been to the track before, would I be required to attend some class or something before that date if I wanted to go? $90 is pretty cheap for a track day

Yes, $90 total.

There's a beginner group, that will include some basic classroom instruction, a lead-follow session, and instructors available to guide you through the basics.

Plus $10 I think to get you in the gate (I'd recommend bringing cash). But it is absolutely worth it.

I'll refrain from commenting

If all goes well, this will be a very interesting weekend for those in attendance.
