Mini Shoot Out 2/5/11 Willow Springs

Extremespeedtrackevents.com will be at Willow Springs -Big Willow-February 5th for a track day,all drivers will have a special track day price of only $125.00 (DISCOUNT CODE IS willow4) for a whole day of fun.Any Questions contact Chris Willard at chris@extremespeedtrackevents. com(co founder of REDLINE Time Attacks and now new owner of EXTREMESPEEDTRACKEVENTS.COM)
or register at Extreme Speed Track Events
Free on track help for beginner

I am trying to put together a MINI Shootout during this event. And if we can get enough interest there can be trophies and even prizes for the fastest time of the day like:
1st Place: Free Track Day Certificate (Timing Included)
2nd Place: $60 Certificate for an ExtremeSpeedTrackEvent
3rd Place: $30 Certificate for an ExtremeSpeedTrackEvent

If I can get enough interest perhaps this can be expanded to a monthly event with a cumulative points and a winner for the year.
PM me if you are interested:
Thanks,
Tom

I was out at ExtremeSpeed's event on Saturday 1/8 and had a blast. Still looking for MINI's to sign up for the next one on 2/5. Their events are significantly cheaper than any others, the next cheapest price I can find for an event at the same track is $160.00.
Here is a little video from my car, sorry for the quality, first time I have used the video camera in the car.

FYI, though by the lack of response I am not sure if anyone will see this, but ExtremeSpeed extended the discount code, willow4, to 1/20/11. Also, Timing for MINI's is free, so do not sign up for timing and you will get it free at the event.

From Dez Ballard, "ABF Tech Division is very excited to be invited out to the MINI Shootout at Big Willow. We will be showcasing our new 2010 Mini Cooper S, code-named "Black Dynamite". The Tech Division features on this black beauty include suspension, big brakes, exhaust and a tuning package. For all MINI owners that are interested, our technicians will be bringing out our track-side alignment and scale equipment as well! This FREE service will be provided on a first come first served basis, all you need is a valid email. I will also be providing FREE driving instruction throughout the day in your very own MINI! So come on out and lets have an awesome track day. We look forward to meeting everyone."
