Randy are you going to need help setting up the course? I'm trying to gage how early we need to leave the LA area to get there in time.

Also I think you can take CJ off the list. He's whining about not having his Lotus.

We should be fine on setup. Us SCCA peeps will take care of it, but feel free to come out early if you want to chip in.

Sorry guys, I'm not going to be able to make it afterall. Was really looking forward to meeting some of you, since I'm still somewhat new to the community.

Thanks Jason.

Hey Randy, here's the course layout for the BMWCCA event last weekend. Are we running the same layout? Looks similar to last year's layout.

Randy Chase · 05-09-2008, 08:20 PM

Nope. That would be too fast for newer people. Top speeds around 100mph in a parking lot? Crazy.

OK so How many are heading to SD on Saturday? How about Sunday Morning?
I'm planning my options, to decide what to do

Marco,
Simon, possibly Roger and I are coming down Sunday morning. Let me know if you want to hook up with us when we go through OC.

Many thanks to Randy Chase for arranging the AutoX - it was a great event full of numerous Lotus'. Nice meeting everyone and glad everyone had a fun safe time... See you all next time, hopefully in my car.

Yes, thanks Randy! And great meeting everyone.

A few of the Lotus in the "paddock" at Qualcomm...

Just got back to Marina del Rey. Man am I tired. What a great day (accept for the hole in my car). Thanks Randy and the SCCA for organizing this wonderful event. Tons of runs and tons of fun!

BTW hired workers ROCK!

Randy Chase · 05-11-2008, 06:51 PM

Very good day. Long fun course. Some had over 40 runs. A few cars were out of gas or tires and many drivers were pretty tired.

Thanks everyone that participated!

25psi_Elise_Killer · 05-11-2008, 09:04 PM

Had a blast down there and loved the TON of runs we were able to do! Thanks Randy!

John · 05-12-2008, 07:53 AM

BTW, B is still excited about her first AutoX. When we got home, her first questions were "when can I do the AutoX again?" followed by "can I drive your car next time?" and "can we go karting soon?" LOL, I'm not sure my selfish wallet is ready to fund two sets of addictions...
