I have been here a couple of times for private track events on the smaller track, here at the streets of Willow. Before I even start, as you exit the freeway grab your food there, and grab it for lunch and dinner too. Unless your a smartie pants like me and pack a cooler full of water, bananas, snacks and ect. See the further way from the freeway you get, the further away from food you get. And you dont want to be hungry, do you? Once in a purple moon do they have a snack truck open. Once you get there, expect to pay to get in. Whether your racing or spectating, there is a $10 entry fee, Unless your on the VIP list. Luckily, I am usually on it. Dogs are free, and must be leashed at all times. Now, expect to be there all morning/day and into the late afternoon. I usually get here around 6:00am and we stay till the end. This is where you may get very upset, so you may just want to close your eyes now. There is NO WIFI/Connection up here. Especially if your with Sprint. So don't expect to be able to yelp or check in because chances are, it wont happen. There will be no FBing or instagraming, unless you have killer service. Bring some magazines, a book, read the paper or in my case my Kindle. There are plenty of portapotties, which I dont know if they are clean or not, since I never attempted to go. I hold it. Sometimes the main building is open and if the water is turned on you can use that bathroom. But always prepare for the worse. It gets cold there, then it gets hot here. So dress in layers, lots of layers. Bring blankets if you need too. You will get dirty, so no sandals or cutesy shoes. Its okay to wear boots, thats what I do. For shade bring a pop up tent, but it does get super windy and the LAST thing you want is to have a fly away tent and have your tent hit someones car. Power, there is really no power here. We bring a generator, then I find all these random devices plugged into our power strip. Bring your own power peeps. We also bring our own sound system and play DJ/Announcer for our events because that's what we do. So if you have to bring only 3 things with you, bring warmth, food and something pleasurable and you will be fine. If you do plan on racing or riding with an instructor you need a HELMET. Fun place to spend the day and watch some guys and gals have fun on the track/

Not only is Willow Springs one of the most filmed racetracks used for television commercials and…read morefeature films but it's darn fun to drive. Tucked against the hills of Lancaster, California, about an hour north of Los Angeles, it's an interesting track that offers elevation changes and high average speeds making it truly fast. I've used this track for teaching, racing, testing and for just having fun. It's been titled "The fastest track in the west" and apparently is a California Point of Historical Interest. "Big Willow", as the main track is nicknamed, allows you to reach speeds of 145mph and upward. I did mention that's in a corner, right? And no, diapers or barf bags are not supplied. :) There are several other tracks on the same property, even a go-kart track. This gives you many different figurations to choose from and should suit your needs no matter what type of vehicle you're driving. So bring your Porsche, Lambo, Mazda, Toyota, Subaru, Yugo or Gremlin, they will have a track set-up for you. Oh, and for all you umbrella girls, sadly there's no grass or pretty grounds to be photographed with, it is a desert. However, CGI can add them easily. :) This is by far the best track in close proximity to Los Angeles.
