Someday I'll be able to afford this. In the meantime I'd love (and I'm sure I'm speaking for many others too) to hear what it was like in great detail from any of you who are lucky enough to get to go.

OP's link is dead. I was just trying to figure this all out. There are other, more affordable options like Autocross... I hope this isn't a hijack but helpful resources. I note that waiting for the Jag schools would take years... but the non-brand specific clubs seem to provide more options, too. Any recs, advice, comments are welcome.... these links are regional but will lead to your areas pretty quick......

I signed up for about $80 at Sears Point in early May. It's the first link. "Trackmasters" for NorCal people who want to hit the track north of Sac, or Sears Point Sonoma...
http://trackmasters-racing.com/

Looks like SF SCCA does some events in Monterey at the old Fort Ord airport in Marina? http://www.sfrscca.org/

Also SF Speed events? Events Registration:
http://www.speedsf.com/events-registration/

Nasa NorCal seems to have a track day this weekend at Sonoma? http://nasanorcal.com/

A general "where 2 race" board: http://www.where2race.com/events

Obviously I want to do the real course with Jag again... I did that in Sonoma last classic car show. I imagine it happens seldom?
