I am updating this post with more information on the drive your own car on a road course scenario.

There is a driving school at Willow Springs Raceway near Lancaster, CA. that offers various driving schools on this 1.8 Mile road course. A one day course is $695 using their car, $495 if you use your own. Please keep in mind that this is a driving school that does offer high performance driving instruction. An INSTRUCTOR is in the vehicle with the driver when on the track. Drivers are not allowed to race each other, the pace of instruction is dependent on the driver's ability, and when/if passing occurrs it is done in a very controlled setting with the instructors in each vehicle aware of what the other vehicle's intentions are. The school recommends an increased air pressure setting that will be a stiff in the seat, but will prevent the tires from rolling and wearing the edges. This same school just did a media presentation with Chrysler and some media people reviewing an SRT.

So if we could book a bunch of us for the same class it could be very cool. . . . .

XFIRE owners in other areas may want to check with their local race track.
