socalhodaka 104 Posted November 13, 2023 This weekend I to El Mirage Dry Lake for the Southern California Timing Association speed trials. It was a blast. This was the last one of the season and next season starts in May with a two day event also. There are of course bikes as well as every other kind of car you can imagine. Some hitting 250mph. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tubebender 40 Posted November 17, 2023 I've been to El Mirage a few times over the years. It's one of the last places you can really see 'shade-tree' mechanical wizardry. Would you ride this? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr.JAJA 380 Posted November 19, 2023 On of my Ramona neighbors run there in many classes and holds the records. I went there more than once. Last time I took a hydraulic fitting from my bike to fix the nitrogen system on the racecar. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr.JAJA 380 Posted November 23, 2023 OK, I talked to Cal today. May an November are 2 day events, I will plane to go for the MAY 2024 event, all depending on my condition and everyone's Weather. I will drive my Camper with trailer and a bike up and plan to stay the whole weekend. (need my camper for food preparation). If you plane to go, I can take some Stuff, Tents, sleeping bag.ec for you and set up a group camp near the race track/ starting line. I know its a long time till MAY, but you know me. Good things will take time. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tntmo 887 Posted November 23, 2023 Yeah, I have lots of things going on at times so even with long term planning I can’t commit. I rarely know for sure where I will be next weekend! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
