Woo hoo! It's on my calendar now. And this year it's not on my wife's birthday so I get to do it guilt-free.

YES! Number 5 for me. It's already been on my calendar for a couple of weeks so thanks for the official announcement!! Can't wait for some special friends to see this thread.

Thanks, John! You and the SoCalLX team have my assistance, as always.

I'll do what it takes to make it happen for you, fnkychkn! SF would not even be the same without YOU! The cars are fine and all but nothing compares to the friendships and memories that are part of each Spring Festival...and that includes you.

I went in a wheel chair two years ago because I broke my ankle and had to bring my Ford Focus last year because I broke a halfshaft and differential at the track, let's see what this year holds :-)

Very excited. Can't wait!!

Since we are so far out can someone look at the availability of a local 1/4 mile track for some racing that weekend. I think that would complete the weekend.

The only 1/4 track near this place is California Speedway and I heard from many, many people... it sucks big time!!!
