bumping this for you. I'd like to try to attend.

Question: is WSIR big wiilow? Speedway Willow Springs? SoWS? it is confusing when you go to WSIR website.

The only one I have driven is SoWS. You wouldn't recommend I join an event if I have never driven that track before right?

Many of the fr-s owners at the previous event (button willow) had never tracked before (myself included), so I say go ahead and register!

WSIR is "Big Willow". And you might as well join if you're going to be there

Went back to Buttonwillow this weekend after working on the driver mod and installing new wheels and rubber (225/45/17 Dunlop Z2 on 8" OZ Allegerita HLT). In the first run I beat my previous best time (2:25) and in the final run I achieved 2:14.4 . Still lots of room for improvement with the current setup I think, just need to replace pads.

Ok guys, i need to move down into california... BYe bye canada!!!

Any of you guys have some career opportunities for a 26 years old, 5 years in the business sales man.

I have been selling race parts and equipment, speak french and english. I will work only for some food/gaz/trackday!!

Too bad nobody in canada is stepping up for this!!


p.s i am 50/50 serious so if anybody wants a good salesman in the motorsport industries let me know.

Bump. A "Stock" class has been added to the series for those with minimal modifications!
