West Coast (LA) RTTHs

[Bill Howell]

OK, everyone has asked for one. After my trip out I think we have found a location to have one hellofa event.
Now is the time to step up and commit to being there if we can pull it off. No money needed but I do need to know if we are talking 10 guys or 100 cars. I am thinking sometime in late summer, probably August. If you can be there, participating to some degree, chime in to this thread. Please, chime in only if you can come, I don't need to hear that you would be there if you had a battery or something. We will have spectator areas too so all that is good, but I need a head count on who could come and spend $75 or $100 to make an event happen out here.

[Henry D]

I'm in.

[CarlC]

Yup.

[Mkelcy]

Yes.

I'm in Bill,,,,, I'll check in with a couple of my cars for minimum at least. This could make for a great fellow "Road Rat" qualifier,,,, couldn't you just see a large contingent of eastern and mid-west cars following the Rat Pack accross America,,,, man that would be a sight!!!!

Nick, Steve and Keith, you ready guys ready to do some serious long haul reviews of some pro-touring rides????? I have a certain White 72RS that would love to break in a new little 556 in an across America run and I'm sure there are a few other members her that would love to step up with there rides too....

Couldn't you just see the head line "Trans America cars" we know your quick, but can you last ..... An up close account of Pro-touring rides that can long haul just as comfortably as carving cones in the Auto cross LOL......

[Finch]

It's a good thing I have a battery then. I will for sure be there if I have a car to put it in.

[moreHP]

Count me in. And if for some reason my car cant make it, I would be happy to help with other things out there to make the event work.

[James OLC]

I'm in!

[tazzz25906112]

I'm in!

Cool James,,, it'll be fun blasting across America with you bud (of I'm assuming you'll be in the east around then)..... If not let me know as I'm sure we can figure things out.


Calling on "Ron"...... I'm expecting a nasty little Blue winger on this run bud ;-)....

[Steve1968LS2]

Yea, we're going to see if we can make this happen. My management at the magazine seemed up to the idea.

El Toro would be a great spot. I picture a smaller "tight" autocross combined with a larger "fast" autocross. I've seen cars hit 90 mph at autocrosses there since there's so much room.

Here's an example of a 2.2 MILE autocross they do there... yea, 2.2 FREAKING MILES! lol

Maybe that will hush up the "35mph in a Walmart parking lot" crowd.. ;)

Here's an in-car deal of thier old course... Gives you an idea of the speeds you can get, even with cones.

El Toro (ex) Marine Base.. it's not far from the coast so it's not crazy hot, even in August. Hot yes, but it's a dry heat. lol

[Jeff70]

Ok gotcha on the El Torro. Hey Rupp PM'd ya.
