Willow Springs Track Day: August 9th

jmarsey · #1 (**permalink**) 07-27-2008, 09:30 PM

Hi All (and you know who you are),

Come and join us at Willow Springs August 9th for a full day on the big track for $100 Bucks! I know this is short notice but the event just became available through Karen and I wanted to share it with you. This is a low stress track day with appropriate run groups for all driving levels. We are planning a little social get-together for the end of the day and I'm sure next year's "Cobra Roundup" at Reno-Fernley will be a track-talk topic.

Here's the link to Karen's thread over on FFCobra for details:

With a little luck, former WSCB Track-Dawgs Karen, Eric, and myself will be there. Eric sounded positive and I am wrestling with tuning a new motor, winning I think.

I would be happy to put you in contact with Karen as well. Just send me a pm.

Talk soon, John

John,
Yes, I know who I am.

Now THAT's a conundrum. I have Monterey coming up and don't want to chance breaking anything that close to the trip.

On the other hand, I need a track day REALLY bad - and - it would be great to see you guys... Here's what may push me over the top - is it Big Willow or Streets?

Doug, It's "Big Willow" but if you just want to come out and hang with us for the day, that would be cool too. I'll bring an ezup and chair for you. LOL

Hey John,
Sounds like fun!
Might be pretty warm huh?

Hey Chris,

Yeah, maybe just a tad warm, lol. Haven't talked in while, how's it going? Car running good I hope? I was up at Dave's a while back, tuning cam change, and said your car was running good. Hope all's good with you man.

Talk soon, John

Thanks John P. and you have mail.

Looks like we’re getting a nice little group of cobras together, 6 or 7 confirmed so far. A mini-Cobra Roundup and should be a lot of fun. This is a great opportunity to run one of the coolest tracks around and having Karen there for pointers is a rare occasion. This will be a safe, well organized track day for drivers of all levels.

Talk soon, John :>

Damn it...been trying to figure out how to make it work, but can't this quickly. My favorite track too.

Enjoy!!!!

I know Ron and sorry about the short notice. That's just how the cards fell. If there's any way, would definitely love to have you there.

Talk soon, John

John,
Too bad.... I can't make it. Was there in May for the COCOA event and left with a 3" hole in #2 cylinder. Building a new FE and won't have it installed for another three weeks. Hope you can plan another track day there in two or three months!!! I think WS is the best!

Hi Scott,

Love your attitude and hope you get your new motor in soon. Our little Cobra Roundup is just getting off the ground and will try to grab little track days, like this one, whenever possible. NASA cancelled their weekend so this opportunity just popped up. We are working on next year's big 2-day event in May '09 at Reno Fernley and I'll be posting progress reports as things come together. I hope you can make it. Should have track & dates confirmed by end of September.

Good luck with your motor and talk soon, John

Hey Chris,

Really glad you'll be joining us with your Boss9 monster! You have mail!

Hi Mike,

You have mail and hope to see you there!

John,
Thanks again. I really am looking forward to the 9th. I've got a couple things I'd like to get done on the car before then, but I think I'll be ready.
See you soon

I have been dying to finally get my Mustang track car out for the first time but have a commitment to go with my family and two others to Lake Mojave that weekend. I think someone is having a track day in Oct. which I hope I can make and the weather will be friendlier in the desert then too. Anyone know any details about that event?

jmarsey · #19 (**permalink**) 07-30-2008, 10:15 PM

Looks like a cocoaoc event Oct 25-26 at Willow.

John,
I will have the coupe in "lock down" that weekend to clean it up for Monterey. Won't have time between then and Wed. to clean it up again for the trip and don't want to risk breaking anything... Will definitely be there in Oct. for the COCOA event (plus it will be cooler!

). Say hi to everyone for me!

Doug
