Default Heading to SoCal this Friday

I decided I couldn't miss the California Festival of Speed in Fontana this weekend so I've decided to head down there on Friday. I have a full suspension install in the shop on Friday in the a.m., so once that is done I'll be heading out.
Anything going on Friday night? I will be at the festival on Saturday.
Who's going?
I would love to meet up with some SoCal Rennlisters.

I can't make it this weekend, but I've driven down several times... a great event every year. If you've never driven California Speedway, sign up for the "lunch-time laps". Sure its slow and safe, but its still kinda fun to actually drive the course to get a better appreciation of the layout. Have a great time!

I would have loved to go sounds like a lot of fun, but the girls start spring break and we are headed up to Tahoe for the week.
Someone please take lots of pics!

Cool, it will take me about 10 mins to install them in the parking lot. I'll bring a block of wood and a crescent wrench

I'm hoping to make it up for at least a bit on Saturday! Been gone on business a lot lately, so I've got "feelers out" to get Deb's response to me bugging out Saturday morning-I'm sure I'll get no grief. I can go get my Porsche fill, and still make it home in time for date night.

Look for the sorta clean and shiny Midnight Blue '95, Sapphire, basket handle & all :

Can't make it, but if anyone is a PCA AX/DE instructor, I know PCA-SDR was looking for folks to help out with the AX. See the PCA-SDR forum for info. I heard it was not very busy last year, so there was plenty of time for instructor laps.

Saturday is rehearsal in the afternoon, however. Geez, you think a Pcar guy would check the racing schedule first....
