So, is your car done?

Maurice,

If Jason doesn't take your tires, and there is still tread on the rears, I may be interested...particularly if Krause doesn't come through. They said a new shipment comes in next week...we shall see.

Have a good one.

BTW, I plan on going up on Thursday, maybe I can meet up with the caravan as you pass through the Roseville / rocklin area.

I had very good luck with Les Schwab on Bradshaw in Sac. The tech who removed and mounted my tires was very carefull and knowledgeable. He considered it a privilege to work on my car. He was also the manager of the store as well.

BXXX,
Thanks for the info

Igo,

Looks Like Jason will take them.
You should order a set of slicks for the track if you have your trailer.

See you guys up there.

Maurice

I think we need a Big Letter Tire thread for Maurice and company........

For those interested in going up 50 on Friday, here is the the plan: Meet at Starbucks in El Dorado Hills at noon. We won't be waisting any time getting on the road so be there or be left behind. We'll get something to eat at South Shore, and from there it's either Carson City or Mount Rose to Reno.

Directions to Starbucks - East on 50, exit El Dorado Hills Blvd. / Latrobe Road. Stay on the 'Latrobe' exit lane, turn left at next light into 'Town Center', Starbucks on the left.

I'll be coming from SF on Thursday. Looking at meeting up with BACC or NorCal group. 80 is boring but more direct and makes the day shorter, less sunburn, and more tow trucks (1000 miles on motor and 500 miles on clutch). Will probably do lunch at Ikeda's in Auburn and gas up. Anyone heading that way on Thursday? Meeting location and time?

I'll be going up Thursday at noon, up Hwy 80. I'm leaving from the parking lot next to Tognotti's Auto World speed shop. That's at the corner of El Camino and Fulton in Sacramento just off busness 80. I'll be driving my Cobra, so if you need a rally point for running up 80 anyone is welcome.

Respectfully, Gary

Default About Friday arrivals...

For you guys coming up on Friday, two things to note:

1. More than Half of us will be at the Track already on Friday, not at the Nugget. It will be very scarce at the Nugget before 4pm Friday.

2. The "Alternate Friday Function" group leaves the JA Nugget at 9:30a.m. or so (lead by Cindrrrr) to do a drive to the National Auto Museum, then on to Virginia City, and stopping by the track at 1:30 to 2:00 as 2:00 is the time we are attempting the big photo shoot of attendees on Turn 7. (ID Badge Required to get in)

ID Badges REQUIRED:
So, make sure you stop by the Nugget BEFORE to get your check-in/ID Badge before you come to the track or they won't let you in as this is a private event.

FYI. DC

Hey Phil. Will it be PG rated? Heheheh, pun intended.

Party is right. I plan to get back from the Track a tad early myself to help get the concert band area set up for the Howlin' Alan Band. I hope everyone likes them. They play every year at the Sacramento Auto Show and for a big yearly private gig in Tahoe once a year. They sure know how to play to the type of crowd, and a few of them are true car guys. Should get interesting between 7-10pm after everyone gets back from dinner and ready to Rock out a bit. Can't wait to hear the guitars wail in there a bit...and louder as it gets later until we have to turn them off or until the police come and tell us to shut 'er down.

Now if you ask me what I would do, I would drive up, back, and up again. But then again I did 2500 miles in 48 hours in the Cobra too, so I'm a little whacked my myself. Go for it Kurt! -John

Looks like it's going to be nice and toasty for our drive up. Weather forecast is mid 90's. Get that suntan lotion on......

Maurice, I assume you are referring to the clutch fluid.... it's done and completely functional

Danny, the first year of the Bash we had to contend with snow!!!! This will be a welcomed change

________________________________________
I can haul some of your oversized items to Reno........... chairs, coolers, etc.

My Cobra is already up in Reno at Steven’s shop where I will pick it up on Thursday.
I will be driving my Tahoe up to Reno Thursday morning, and coming back Sunday afternoon. I live in Roseville, about a mile off highway 80 up from the water park that you can see from the highway.
Anyone needing coolers, chairs, tools or whatever, hauled up (or back), you can drop it by my house and I will take it up to the Nugget, where we're staying, or Steven’s shop by Superformance (to be determined). I also have an 8x8 flatbed if the need for more or larger items arise. Your items can be picked up at my house anytime after the Bash. Pass the word on the other WSCB threads. I will post again tuesday

Well, I may be able to bring up the kid and myself for Saturday and see what we can see, before returning to Sac. Would love to hook up with some of you for pic, but know you will alll be busy with driving your cars. I still need to visit the Vendors and narrow down my choices and maybe I will be ready for the 2010 or 2012 Bash.
