How many cars are you expecting?

Santa Barbara is quite the drive from San Diego...but it might be a nice trip with the lady friend if it looks to be a good turnout.

Where would you rather be?

Santa Barbara = 75 and breezy.

Willow Springs = 110 and blustery.

There were about 100 last time. There will likely be a few people from SD driving up there this time around. I most likely will be at least. Last time we all met up at a designated spot and caravaned up together.

That's like plowing down a line of trees in a forest.

We'll hopefully be able to make it this year - but no focus

Except the true question is.....Do I want to be in a Race car at 110 degrees or not in one on with cool breezy 75 degrees.

The key word seems to be the Race car.

I think you should change it to "The Beach is Back." That's a much better teaser.

Can someone post the pic of ZX36R4TI2000 sitting, relaxed as the fires of Mordor spit at him?
