Looking to rent a ride for the Open lapping at Laguna Seca on November 6th. 2 drivers, lots of experience, don't really want to rent an automatic camaro from avis (but I will)
been looking online but haven't found anyone that rents.. any ideas? Thanks!

What kind of car? There are lots of Spec Miata rentals available around the bay area. Lesher Motorsports are in Salinas, just down the road from Laguna, and have a lot of rentals. TSE also rent Miatas. If you want something a bit more race-car-y, there's always a Spec Racer Ford. All of this is going to be more expensive than Avis, but if you're feeling particularly well-heeled, Dietsch Werks rents race-prepped Elises. :)
They might not let an SRF run during a lapping day...
This is relevant to my interests... I'd love to rent a Spec Miata or similar for a lapping day, just to say I'd driven the track.
Lotus Club track day, right?
Rent a Lotus from Dietsch Werks, obviously!
Or come out to Buttonwillow instead and I'll rent my Fiero to you.
Looks like a Lotus Club day. Talk to the organizers and ask if they have any recommendations. Otherwise, Lesher or Larry Oka racing is an option for a race prepped Miata. Lesher may be a better bet since he is local.
