->> $15 for a one day permit, valid from dawn to dusk

$30 for a weekly permit, valid for 7 days

$90 for an annual permit, valid from October 1, 2009 - September 30, 2010

Permits will be available for sale on-site using a fee machine. The on site fee machines take cash and credit cards. Please bring exact amount of the pass, the machines do NOT make change. The fee machines at EL Mirage sell daily, weekly and annual passes. Also permits can be purchased online,
http://www.elmiragepermits.com and at the Barstow Field Office, 2601 Barstow Road, Barstow Calif.

Does not say much about photo commercial shoots permits. That would be worth a call in the morning. Link below is where I got the information above.

->> When I was a kid, I went whipping across El Mirage, all out, in my Ford Cortina GT, 1.6 liter twin cam Lotus engine, Weber carburetor and dual exhaust. Wow! At least back then :)
