There's a real good chance I'll be there for the weekend, also. From what I've read on the V-drive forum, a handful of those guys will also be racing.

guru where were you this last sat at LL. I think every jet there took that flattie. That flattie did look like it was picking up speed though. If it would have been a full 1/4 I think he MIGHT have taken them.

I like the bbq idea. They also have a good bbq dinner there most of the time on Sat night. I'd love to get together with everyone and cook up some tri tip etc. We could bring sides and or meat, just need to let us know. I'll also see if we can get some of the other So. Bay guys to get up there.

I don't know if they will let you unless you are with a racer. The Classic V-Drive Club is going to be there also with a show & shine. Space could be a problem this weekend. Maybe John with JM can get you hooked up. If not the camp ground is close and pretty nice. But you will need someone to get you a spot before Saturday. But hey if you have to park in the parking lot it's not far and won't be that bad for cookout.
I'm only going to be there for Saturday and can be found by the fence when the flats are runnin. :D

The parking is only 100 feet and you will have room. But the rangers might boo hoo you for camping in you toy box there. At least they used to. That's why I'm thinking you might want to get a camp site. When you get there you will be on a one way road and just as you pass the lake there is a road that shoots off to the right. That's where the campground is. It's prety nice and is right on the Kern river.

Ditto on the ride up Travis, we'll probably be bringing two cars anyways, so it's an option.
See you tomorrow at El Paso. Don't forget to bring Brandon Too!

I would like to meet some of you guys, I read more than I post, but it would be nice to put some faces to all these names, you never know, I could walk right past you at a sandbar and never know who it is. I help out my cousin who races a 10 sec. flatbottom. Were leading the points so far. The name of the boat is Culmination #545.
Where will everyone be?

Senor HBjet,
It's at the El Paso Cantina in Torrance off of Sepulveda between Crenshaw and Cabrillo. As I understand it everyone will be showing up around 6:30-7:00. You're more than welcome to come up and hang out with us. It's not that bad of a drive from HB, I don't plan on getting really hammered. If you do come up, swing by Mike's house and then Andy and Christina's, the more the merrier.
If I don't see you tonight, I'll see ya on Saturday.
Chris

I'm in for the races. Fiften bucks to get in and 50 bucks for beer. How much is a pit pass? My dad and I use to go to the races years ago at Lake Ming. It's pretty cool. See ya at El Paso. Leslie and I plan to be there at about 6:30. Chris and Tyson are you bringing your ladies? HB see you at the the bar wearing a jet black AC/DC t-shirt.

Travis,
A pit pass would allow you to actually park in the pits. Access to the pits is free with admission. Most of the guys are pretty cool about folks checking out their rides. Down in DNE/MPD land past the outramp there will be quite a few fast jets to oggle. We'll see you guys tonight at El Paso.
Talk to you later,
Chris
