Dude!
That's not San Diego. That's Cucamonga.
I am in Red Hill.

I moved No race tracks in San Diego Felt odd sitting in traffic all those years every time I left for Buttonwillow/Fontucky/Willow Springs. Now I sit in a *little* less traffic.. :LOL:

Are you the top dog for the Box 2.5 class in SoCal?

Why do I see NO AutoX or TT events for Riverside region?? I move into this area with more tracks and more space to hold AutoX and I see ZIP going on. What gives??

Brad,
Good to have you here. Calif. Speedway and Willow Springs are where the action is for our area. While SD-PCA, OC-PCA, and PCA-GPX are very active with driving events the Riverside region is pretty dormant.

Nope, not the top dog here. Plenty of drivers still faster than me. Graeme recently moved to the OC from Colorado. He is a multiple time National Champion with the SCCA and probably the Boxster to beat in So. Cal.

The next major event in our area is the Festival of speed April 4,5,6 at Calif. Speedway. I am planning to run in the Time Trials there. We will also be working the starting grid for the Club, Spec, and Vintage races. It should be a great weekend.

Tonight a group of us are Karting at K2 in Ontario at 7pm. You are welcome to join us if you need to get in a little apex time.

Are the K2 karts electric or gas? I have ran Mirimar, Moran, and a place in Carlsbad.

Happy to be in this area (closer to my dad now) and looking forward to meeting some more Boxster people!

Even if K2 is electric, I may do a fly by to say *hello*

It is actually K1 Speed by the Ontario Mills 10/15 interchange. Probably the same as the one in Carlsbad. 20 hp, all electric, limited to 50mph. We have a regular group of 8 that go once a month. Ages range from 20-50. We run for about an hour and then cool down at Outback with some suds.

Just average guys. We will be the group that doesn't look like Ricers.

Nice ride! I think we have the same CUP wheels except mine are not painted red.
