FRIDAY, JANUARY 7TH, 2022 

7 AM to 5:30 PM

STREETS OF WILLOW  The newly repaved Streets of Willow (SOW) is a short but technical track with 13 turns in the typical configuration. The typical configuration includes the full bowl and skidpad. SOW can be run in a clockwise and counter-clockwise direction. The track is 1.6 miles long. This track is ideal for beginners to intermediates due to the relatively low speeds and that there is run off space in some key areas. It is also an excellent track for advanced drivers to practice on. It is an excellent track to learn how your car feels and handles in turns and good practice for applying different braking techniques. The highlights of this track are the chicane, the bowl, and the skidpad. This track is also excellent practice for other technical tracks here in California such as Buttonwillow, Spring Mountain, Chuckwalla, and Laguna Seca.
