I didn't get a chance to go since I had to go to Orange County for the day. But later in the evening (10pm or so) I was heading up north to Oceanside from Del Mar and a crew called "Euro Rev" came up on me. There was quite a bit of traffic and I was a little apprehensive about chasing them, since I didn't know how they drove, but I decided to just follow. 'Following' required me to get through all the cars at around 115 to keep up.
There were two E46 M3's, an E39 with a kit, an X5 4.something with huge black wheels and a yellow 996 that looked so hot. I ended up getting off in Oceanside, but I'm assuming that these guys were going back up to Orange County or LA? Dunno. Pretty fun tho.

2. Cali speedway perhaps?
I'm ready for some serious...

I have yet to join the 'buck fifty' club. Hit 140-something several times but can't get the ***** to break 150. The car is so damn stiff and low that at those speeds every little bump and divide is very apparent. I'll just wait for that track event in September.
