West Coast Focus Challenge - Buttonwillow January 14th - Focaljet

**Draxas** · 11-28-2005, 10:47 AM

Hey Everyone,

Now that we have our 2006 Schedule almost completed I wanted to let everyone know that we have decided to schedule the first West Coast Focus Challenge for Saturday, January 14th 2006 at Buttonwillow Raceway just outside of Bakersfield, CA.

The price for the day will be $165/car. This includes Free Transponder Rental ($25 value) and the one dedicated Focus Challenge Session (in addition to the normal 2+ hours of track time).

If you are already registered at FocusChallenge.com, please make sure to visit the site again and update your vehicle modifications list so we have an accurate handicap to work with for the event.

Excellent. Look forward to it.

**slidemaster** · 11-28-2005, 02:40 PM

Im sure Scotty would go...now if we can get the same guys as at SVTOA, plus a few more. Airforce, Bur, MeanSVT, Acnon, ect.

If any 1st timers are coming would be willing to help get you up to speed

**BUR_ZX3** · 11-28-2005, 04:39 PM

I'm all up onz.

Met Craig, who was @ the Speed Trials USA Event last month who'll be joinging us in January (will also be up there on the 16th of Dec with RLTE).

**slidemaster** · 11-28-2005, 06:13 PM

Wow, I believe I met him as well. Although he was pitted down the way from the trailer. I told him about the jet and suggested he join.

Way to go Todd! ZX3 right?

**BUR_ZX3** · 11-28-2005, 06:31 PM

Yup... a sangria red one.

**slidemaster** · 11-29-2005, 11:43 AM

See if you can get a few of the old schoolers. I'll talk to the guys that have been out with the BDX lately.

Good shot at getting 15 to 20 cars

**scottishsvt** · 11-29-2005, 02:10 PM

I am in and I will try to get some of the Nor cal guy to come down, Can't wait to see some old friends and have some good clean racing.

Great! Try to get Omni as well as Robbie, Smurf, and the others.

**OmniFocus** · 11-30-2005, 05:28 PM

Oh don't worry about me, I'm in for sure.

I've already ordered parts in anticipation.

**slidemaster** · 11-30-2005, 05:32 PM

Kick ass guy!! See if you can get some of those Northern Ca. guys down.

**OmniFocus** · 11-30-2005, 05:45 PM

I'll do my best.

**GtnMaZumOn** · 11-30-2005, 06:17 PM

That price makes it mighty tempting

**scottishsvt** · 11-30-2005, 06:56 PM

Great know that you are coming down Omni should be fun, if we can get enough guys from Nor-cal we should challange the guys from so-cal to an overall time challange matching 3 on 3 or 4 on 4 or any even number matching any even number total time of the fastest lap. I will throw in the a trophy we can call the Battle of California.
Any one interested.

**Draxas** · 11-30-2005, 09:16 PM

Battle of California sounds like alot of fun!

Lowest combined corrected time?

**airforcefocus** · 12-01-2005, 12:32 AM

I am soooooo hosed with my handicap, but I'll be there!

I need to sort out by brakes. After many bleeds and a new master cyl., they are still spongy.

**Draxas** · 12-02-2005, 10:12 AM

We're set to fix part of the handicap system Chris. If you havent already visited the forum, head over to the Focus Challenge HQ section of the boards... ;-)

Wait...there's a Focus Challenge Headquarters section?!? Oh wait...I'm not allowed.

**Draxas** · 12-02-2005, 01:18 PM

Yeah, the Focus Challenge HQ section has limited access for now. The team who has contributed in the past to organizing/helping the FC has access at this time. We will open a public section of the Focus Challenge HQ in early 2006, but still have the "admin" section for series leadership discussions.

Heh, me too.

I guess I got credit for trying to be the "handy helper guy" 3x more often than actually driving.

I'm still here to help, let me know what I can do.

**slidemaster** · 12-02-2005, 01:52 PM
