Mo, Did you ever find that trailer?

I assume you're still going...right? Did you happen to talk Juicee into coming .

It seems that we are going to have a few MB's out there and it should be a blast. I'll give you a call on my way down to LA tomorrow.

DAgo, are you still making it out on Saturday? I think most will show up a little early to give their cars a chance to cool down. Hope to see you out there.

By the way, looks like West Coast Extreme 2 will take place at Famoso around the 20th.
Good to know, Friday night or day?

Looks like I am going to get to make this one. I will be in a stock 03 E55 (same as sig) with my wife and possibly our dog. I assume they allow lap dogs into the park. See you all there!

Alan, I don't think I will be able to make it Couldn't get the correct trailer or straps.....

Good luck to everybody who's going, and please txt me the updates and I'll update this thread

By the way, I've been monitoring the weather on Saturday, and it used to say only 10% chance of rain, but now it's up to 30% And I'm thinking if it rains only before our track event, it'll still ruin our traction

No problem Mo.

As for the weather, I think it's going to end up to be a nice day. There's a 10-30% chance of showers early morning...4am or so. We won't start racing until 12. It was just like this last time Nick and I went and it turned out to be a record breaking day. I guess the only thing we could is hope the weather forecast is accurate.

ok, is there a gas station near the track that has 95 octane? if not I can get it here in town but it would be a waste to drive 75miles at $6.75 a gallon

Me and my cousin Ms2knights will be there tomorrow, but what time are we meeting, and when do we start racing. Please let me know I live near, but my cousin lives an hour away, and we don't want to miss out.
