One nice, one crappy Honda registered. Trying to talk one Honda powered Lotus into the drive. Uniquely excited for this
jr02518 said:The left cost is never part of this rotation. But I offer:
Lone Pine Time Trials, think high speed auto cross on a retired air strip located on Hwy 395.
Transiting thru the Sierras to Crows Landing, traditional auto cross on a concrete site,
Then on to the Coalinga airport, how fast is your car and will is stop, not sure what you call the event but it has a"Top Gear"feel.
Then on to Buttonwillow for a counter wise track session, most have not had the pleasure of this opportunity.
Getting to Lone Pine is worth having to listen to everyone complain about the drive, until they realize how beautiful the drive is getting to the event.
Having to stop at Harris Ranch as a gathering spot, worth the steak dinner!
As a westerner (AZ) you had me at Lone Pine and Buttonwillow. LP was a blast when I ran there back in the early 80s. But aren't entries limited now-a-days? Maybe right after the 'official' LPTT - course will still be clean.
If anyones legit interested. It's shaping up to be a fun event.
In reply to camopaint0707 :
Sounds like a great way to spend four days; good luck on the event.
Can Aim Solo be used for timing with reasonable accuracy? Maybe instead of laying down timing loops, everyone just has to have an Aim Solo and turns in their data of fastest lap, 1/4 time, etc. at the end of the day's "sessions" for scoring?
Cool. I already have something planned for that weekend, but good luck!
Depending on how many registrations you get, it can be beneficial to organize hotel room blocks. Sometimes you can get a discount and it makes the morning cat-herding process easier. Unless you plan for it to be more of a "be at the event start on time" free-for-all and how each participant does that is their business.
You folks are close to reinventing the Open Track Challenge. 7 track days at 7 tracks in the West. Full track days, not six lap sessions. I remember Spring Mountain, Vegas (two directions) Thunderhill, Buttonwillow and Willow Springs. More track time than OLO(eastern)A, less highway time. Ran for two years, 2002/3.
Trailers were allowed but not required.
