Chris who? I haven't seen the guy. Yes, it is time for a traditional run, just not Thanksgiving weekend because of law enforcement. I will try to start the planning this weekend.

Come join the T-Day run up in LA county somewhere (whenever it gets finalized). Then, plan a run in the OC, or even the OC and SD county.

I wish the Glendora Mtn thing would open. That's a blast and no CHP. It's just too remote for any traffic. And not too far from any of us. But, it ain't open. I'm sure they are dragging their feet on this for a number of reasons. One is fire, another is money.

Sorry if this is a hijack.

Not at all, Milt. Thanksgiving is out for me as I'll be working until about 10ish that night.

A far as one of our SOCG runs, yea I'm ready. We haven't had a good one for over six months.

Chris, don't forget about Willow Springs on December 13th. Richard, what about you heading up there for some fun? That goes for you too, Milt.

Here's what's up at Willow:
ACRA @ WSIR Dec 13th - Xmas Party at the track

Patrick and I (from the SOCG) attended the last event they hosted on October 11th and had the best time (ever). $145. Five 30 minute track sessions for each run group (yellow, blue, red). Jack Olsen there to instruct and even drive your car if you wanted him to (I did and he showed me what my car could do - totally eye-opening experience.) Quite a few Pelicans made it out.

Here's a link to that day. About halfway down page three is where the writeups start (with pics):
October 11th Willow Springs on the Big Track

Alex, dude, what is up with that car of yours? How's it coming along?

Hey there, Shawn!! How's it goin'?

Yea, I can make it up to Paul's for a little bit. What time? And, yes, I'll attend tomorrow morning if you guys are there. Chris and I were there last week and the number of cars there is insane (like 400).

I'm not sure about lunch but we'll see. As for the little surface rust issue, anytime brutha. I told Paul that I didn't want to see you go through the same expensive hell I went through. Rust is like cancer and you want to kill it early on.

I may end up in Ontario on business at some point. Now that I know my way around out there I will come and find you guys if and when I am out. I have a pin placed on Google Earth in Tustin. I call it my happy place.

Alex, 12:30 sounds good. I just remembered that I have to be back home by 1:00 to meet my furnace repairman, so it'll be a quick visit for me.

Patrick,

When you first pull onto the street, you'll see a sign that says something like visitor's parking. Pass that one up. The next one will say something like participant parking (something like that, anyway). Use that one. It's just past the big curve. Be there no later than 7AM. Trust me on that one. The whole 400 car lot fills up pretty fast.

Here's the address:

Ford PAG Mazda Campus
7905 Gateway Blvd.
Irvine, Ca. 92618

Is there coffee there, or do I need to bring my own?
