Mainly PCA.
I have some friends that were very active here in the Northeast...yet they told me they recieved a not so warm welcome at the event in SF and are looking elsewhere.

Is there a club near Santa Clara???

If so, would someone care to reach out to these guys...they are really nice...they ran the autocross here for many years and just need a nice group of people to join so they are not so homesick for our club.

They are also perpetual volunteers...alas Boxter owners.

Thanx in advance.

Please pardon me. I am a car guy. I get email once in a while from guys I used to autocross with who searched my name and find me listed in PCA results. I like cars. There are few that I would not own if I had room and cash. I always find it odd that someone would criticize a car because of the type of guy driving it. I recently mentioned at work that I was thinking of buying my 15 year old a Miata for a first car. OMG!!! You would think that they had flipped all the Miatas on the planet over and found a vagina or checked the oil for the estrogen level. I tried to point out that one of the most popular spec racers in the country is the Miata series but no! I was going to ruin my son for life if I bought him this "girly" car. Remember don't hate the Honda, its the idiot who bolted on all the stupid bling that deserves your derision.

I think we should resolve though to seek out these guys and invite them and bring them in to our circle. How do we contact them? I will make them my personal project over the 10th and 11th of September weekend for the Zone events.
