About this event
Vintage Auto Racing Association invites you to attend the K&N Oktoberfest racing and VARA HPDE event and BBQ dinner at Buttonwillow Raceway Park, celebrating the vintage race cars of the German marque. Featured events include the 'All-German' production car race.
Of course, we'll have all VARA regular run groups. Track configuration will be 25 Counter Clockwise using the full back straight (no bus stop), Magic Mountain and all-the-way-down to the Mazda hairpin corner. Sunday will be the same course in reverse.
New for this event will be the Inaugural VARA High Performance Driving Experience. This will include 4 on track sessions with a instructor and 2 classroom sessions. This will be limited to previous VARA U participants. This is the time to practice those skills you have learned at VARA U on the same track configuration your friend or family will be racing the same weekend.
Saturday night's dinner features German sausages, sides, wine and cheese and the all-important keg of beer. Each entry receives two tickets to the dinner.
The entry fee for this event is $395 for VARA members, with separate Friday practice available through the track. The track collects $10 weekend gate fee for each person entering.
