Default Looking for a racetrack

OK, I have the best idea ever, but I can't do it without a day at a racetrack. Anyone have any hook ups at a west coast racetrack? Need 1 track day, will promote whatever needs promoting in exchange.

Guys, I know what tracks are around, I just need help getting (severely) discounted access to them. Tracks are very expensive, and most of the time prohibitively so in our case. Our budgets are very, very tight, but if we can find a very cheap or free day at a race track, then I can make the most epic episode ever.

I don't know how helpful this is, but if you go to:
http://www.buttonwillowraceway.com/

and click on Calendar, there are days marked "OPEN TEST". On those day, the rates are a lot lower.

Never been to Thunderhill, but I've heard they have some great events there. I found a track, that's pretty small but actually quite adequate for our purposes, and I think we'll get to do our challenge after all..... I'm working on it.

Thanks for the suggestions.
