thank you
Had a great time. Ran into some old buddies, had a great track day. It was pretty hot but not unbearable and this is coming from a beach guy. Thanks to all you for putting it on and BIG THANKS to MAZDA for bringing out the 4 rotor cars, what a treat to see them hauling serious @$$ on a big open race track like Big Willow. Just plain awesome to see them in motion and to hear the wonderful sound they make when running at speed, there is nothing like it.
Are you guys going to set up a picture/video thread? I have a few pics and an in car video from the track day...

wish i had time to hang out after the show but i had a few cars getting delivered that evening(Mikes FC) and another shipped the next day(Dick's blue 8 that died on the track). will be working on setting up a real booth next year. i also will try to get there on time next time instead of at midnight(headlight issues in the middle of the desert kind of suck). i'm still a little amazed that my FC rarely gives me any grief on those 500+ miles trips with all the neglect i have given it.
big Thanks to everyone who put together the show! it was good to see some faces i haven't seen in a few years.

Had an awesome time this year. Just made the swap over to 7club, I have known a bunch of people for a long time on here, but I have always kept busy with the AzMazdaClub. Good to match a few names and faces together.
Looking forward to next year's event.

Maybe it's changed some over the years, but I got a lot of very unpleasant memories of that town, for what it's worth.
It's also generally 10 degrees hotter there than Rosamond. The average high temp for Palm Springs in September is 102 degrees.

why was it more expensive at the track? only difference i would guess should be the cost of bringing everything the extra 2 hours away from socal. yes i know there are no tracks down in the heart of LA, basically saying any show outside the valley is going to cost more, not because it was at the track.
