As for going, I'm all for it. Costco has a two for one that I generally see.

What happened to Dromo 1?

I also know that one of my favorite food trucks Lomo Arigato (it's a Peruvian/Japanese fusion that's pretty damn good) is making the K1 Speed in Torrance home on Thursday nights. (http://www.facebook.com/lomoarigato#!/lomoarigato)

So, we should go to the Torrance one on a Thursday night and grab dinner at Lomo.

Maybe Thursday July 8 would be good. What do you guys think?
July 8th is good. Looking forward to it.

Anyone else??

yep, was a blast.

My best was a 28.3, but Phil brought in a Ringer who clocked us all.
Splinter, I didn't realize you were so close to my time. You were some 2/10ths. Mad skills.

Karo, Milkm4n, and jrec230 - good to catch up. Clean and tastefully modified rides!

Thank you, emrliquidlife.
Erstwhile marginal ability to exploit the circle of traction seems to have escaped me of late.
...
expectation: might get ‘round a wee bit quicker next time we get after it.
reality: you’ll all be commensurately faster, too.
