upcoming Laguna Seca - Miata event

Anybody here planning to be there? I'm scheming real hard to figure out a
way to do it. It's ~1800 miles each way for me! Looks like too much fun to
pass up though.

I've raced at Laguna Seca.....and if the opportunity arose to run an
MX5 around there I'd grab it!!!!

I guess that would make it about 175 miles or so less each way for me,
but it doesn't look good. I will try to make California this year, but I
will be far south of Monterey and probably several months too late for
the event.

I'm try to finagle something involving my little brother in Phoenix. Gotta
decide quick though, spots are dwindling for the track days!

Hmmmm, I'll be in San Marcos around St. Patrick's day... That's about
as far away as leaving from Phoenix and I'll be Miataless as I need the
van with the backpacker if I'm going to do anything while I'm there...

What's a backpacker?

So it looks like it's impossible for me.

Too bad you're going to be in San Marcos in a van! There's some of TX's best
roads very close by there.

Why are some of TX's best roads in Californicate?

http://www.ci.san-marcos.ca.us/

I notice there's also a San Marcos in some other country somewhere in
northern Mexico, the place the Mexicans call "Texas?" <GD&R>

You can't find roads much better than the route I take to San Marcos,
state 371 from Palm Desert to Aguanga and state 79 into Temecula are
great Miata roads, I'll probably be screeching tires and sliding at
25mph... <sigh>

But I'll be doing the tourist thing and I have to have the scooter to
get around... I'll be taking in the zoo and/or Wild Animal park and I
can rent scooters there but I can't walk from the parking lot to the
gate at the zoo, the WAP is a maybe...

No, gonna stay in the US so I don't have to get a passport and all
those shots.

Of course some may argue that Californicate is not only a different
country but also a different planet. <G>

Is there anyone I haven't offended yet? I have a couple more minutes
before I have to go.... ;-)

The ground shakes, the mud slides and the forests burn, plus the
Governor is The Terminator.

There is also high-grade medicinal marijuana available from vending
machines in parts of California, or so I have heard anyway..............
Sure sounds like a different planet to me.

You have left the east coast and the midwest untouched, and that is just
for the US. I have faith in you. :-)
