I dropped into Laguna Seca a few days ago while I was heading back to Canada after a vacation in AZ. We watched the Audi bunch having so much fun that I have convinced my wife to support me in a long haul back down there this season with my SCCA-legal GT1 car. Its just production-based and nowhere near as fast as purpose-built tube-frame 'real' GT1 cars, but I want to try that track before I get much older/fatter/slower. I have joined SCCA-SF Region in preparation, and see three SCCA events listed, one in early May, another in late June and another in early Oct. I could REALLY use some advice as I prep the car and plan the long trip down from British Columbia. Is there anyone on here that intends to compete in one or more of these weekends? This old 'newbie' could use all the local information he can get! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Well, thanks again you two. The trailer is packed, the trusty Chevy is gassed and ready to go. We're getting some shut eye for a few hours, then leaving at first light to avoid the line up at the border crossing that builds up quickly these days. See you on Thursday!

That's half the battle! We arrived in Monterey an hour ago without incident (not counting that WA state trooper on his Harley...) and I'll be able to join that line up at the track entrance after lunch tomorrow. I'm happy with the very cool weather, especially after two days at 90 degrees plus getting down here! Randy, if you see this, I'll watch for you and see if we can set up camp nearby. Now, just to get that tech sticker... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)
