Any Cali guys know of any San Fran area strips at sea level

Thinking of making the trip late this summer or maybe next season to try to Beast out at sea level.

I would be taking I-80 out to SF....then heading North or South depending on closest strip at sea level (or at least close).

Thanks for any info.

See you in Cali.

I don't know when the season starts but there is also wednesday nights at Sears Point Raceway. I am pretty sure that is close to sea level. Let me know if you come out, I'd be willing to hook up and do a little racing!!
