Well, if nothing else, the sense of humor is way high here. I think an event with everyone having a good time and laughing, will be something everyone will remember. Howard, I bow to (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) you in respect for your diligence and purserverence to find us a track to run our cars and have a great time. I dont care how warm it gets as I can drink a lot of fluids and we can bring some of the old fire extinguishers filled with water to hose the girls off when they look too dry. With it being warm adn all the women will be wearing less and that will add an appeal to most of the male members anyway, I know I would like it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

This I will guarantee - if it's 110+ you can't drink enough water/gatorade/powerade to stay cool and if you don't bring your own shade, there isn't any (or wasn't). Running around nude doesn't even help.

I hope the hell the wind isn't blowing either - you'll have one hell of a time seeing anything thru the sand/dust storm.

I've also been there when it was so effin cold, your feet/hands freeze and you're ready to set the car on fire for warmth.

That said, it is a wonderful track and fun to drive/race it. Just don't minimize the extremes that exist there. If you catch a good day, it is beautiful (if you like the desert).

Any possibility that the 06 PNW team could be setting up a venue NOW for WCC 06?


Is that true. Jeff have you ar any of the other team looked into PNW tracks for 05? SRP We run bikes on and is generally used for Drags. Its obviously off the beaten path and as such would imagine might still have reasonable dates available. Downside is its 5Hrs from real civilization! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

You might look into California Speedway also. I have attended several events that the porsche club put on and there was racing on the track plus there was another group AX in one of the parking lots, mostly ricers and they were going to have street drags that night. there is also Irwindale speed way to look into.
