We ignore that all the time.

You'll pay $20 to cross the GG Bridge driving a Miata with an HF trailer, though. Stupid, that combo weighs less than a normal car.

Anyone still looking for a spot? I signed up for Saturday and Sunday, but it'll be the end of my first week of work at a new job a very long way away from Monterey. Haven't ruled it out, but the car's a wreck, I haven't been on track in months, and I'm probably going to need to apartment shop so...

For the right price I might toss in the car too.

Bump for a C1 group Saturday and C group Sunday spot. If no one here wants it I'm going to cancel the spot.

So, uh, MRLS might be a little on fire right now



I just spoke to our VP of HR who lives in the ultra expensive development over next to the track and its currently being evacuated. The fire is somewhere between Corral De Tierra Road and MRLS itself on the west side of Highway 68 for those of you who want to look it up on Google Maps. CalFire has nothing listed on their website as of yet, but they have a shitload of equipment committed at this point.
