West Coast Race GTG

Silverback said:
Okay, Mapquest says it's 1028.38 miles. So if I average 15.5 miles to the gallon that means it will take me 66.35 gallons to get there. The tank holds 26 gallons if I remember right so if I leave home with a full tank and fill up every time that will leave me with approximately 11.65 gallons when I arrive.

Damn, guess I can't race.:( :eek:


Man Silver.....really hope you show up....would love to meet you.....
 
The second level manager that I have to coordinate this with is on vacation this week (I know, they can take vacations but we can't. But then who does the work) so I have to wait until Monday to see if I can do this or not. The odds are pretty slim as they wanted to cancel my last vacation.

Just so I know, what is the plan? Meet at the track on Saturday morning and dinner that night?

nice.....a professional..........can you bring Kate Bosworth and Keira Knightly too....?
 
Ok cool update

The track owner got back to me....Blake Bowser (son of the owner)...He is aware of our group...its size and the fact that this may become an annual event....

He will try to get us some pit space set aside....but no promises....ANYONE GOING UP ON FRIDAY...can go and set up some space for us....anyone....?....please post up if you can stop by the track friday....

What he can do is try to get us a lane for one run that we can all do together..like at nats....:D ....

For sure he can (after the last run of the day) put us all together at the staging area for a big group shot under the lights....:rock:

So...for next year.....we can rent the entire track just for us for about $5000.00 for the day....we get us + the Ls + some vipers = 100 cars....= $50/ person for figure 20 runs if you want....

They will have top fuel cars there testing for an event 2 weeks later so the prep will be crazy good...they had a car run 5.85 last week and he shut down before the line....:D

The track has aged nicely with lots 'o rubber....should be record 60' times......

9 days to go............
 
Dude, our Trucks are side-by-side tonite... mine won't be ready until later. Hopefully some of that speed of yours will rub-off a little on mine.
And the track rental is less then we were paying at Fontana...I likey
