Gauging interest private track day at Buttonwillow

Wanted to see if there would be any interest in a private track day at Buttonwillow? It would be a Tuesday or Wednesday likely 2nd week of October.

We'd look at running small run groups so plenty of track time for everyone with driver coaching for the beginner group as well as exhibition group with some pretty cool cars in it!

I probably can't do it, but know quite a few of the LMSCC guys who would probably be interested in your need to fill slots.
All Lockheed Engineer/Scientist types, so you won't have to deal with douch-bags or drifters

Rough estimate on pricing is $200-$250 depending on how many cars we have. Any skill level is welcome we just ask people to be honest so we can make sure we have enough instructors available.

As it stand right now we'll run 3 run groups, Beginner, Inter, Advanced. Each session will be 20 minutes long.

This should provide everyone with tons of track time. We'll also run an exhibition group but that group will get very limited track time basically 30 mins in the morning and the same in the afternoon
