I'd like to come down and run some SOCAL events in 2015. Anyone want to combine several events and maybe make our own points series? Maybe we could all put up some cash or prizes to make it more interesting?

I looked at both schedules and propose the following:

Feb 28 Willow Springs
Mar 14 Sonoma
Apr 18 Thunderhill
May 16 Autoclub
Jun 13 Buttonwillow
Jul 31 Laguna Seca
Sep 26 Sonoma
Oct 10 Buttonwillow

Points collected per NASA scoring. 4 race drops in season tally. $200 entry fee to run the series. Winner gets 30%, 15% for 2nd, 10% 3rd. Remainder of money pays for trophies and anything left is distributed evenly to everyone. We might be able to find some sponsorship as well.

I volunteer to organize and track the "series" or I'm fine to put that to vote or whatever people want to do.

Let's go have some fun this year! Who's in?

Wow I just saw this but I am surprised that nobody has commented.

I will be racing both cars next year but count me in for at least a few of those races.

April 18 is Socal Buttonwillow & Thunderhill

Series sounds fun idea.

I posted it in both NorCal and SoCal and there were more comments on the NorCal thread. I think we can make something work.

Would you consider Chuckwalla Feb 7,8? It's a NASA-AZ and SoCal cross over which has been a blast in the past with good turn outs from both regions. Maybe that could replace one of your dupe tracks???

This is a great idea, I would hope to join in, it sounds like all you need is 4 races out of the 8 if I am reading it correctly.

Thanks for considering an additional track.

Hi Norm!

My idea here is that we all decide what works for the group as far as tracks, timing, and drops etc to make a fun group with better turnouts. I think throwing a little cash in keeps us motivated to show up and try to win the championship. Maybe now that people are interested, I'll ask one of the moderators to put up a new "Region" that is all CA and AZ combined. We can sort the ground rules and get organized.

I'd consider Chuckwalla if there was going to be a big turnout. It is about an 8 hour tow for me and I'm a little nervous about having a ready car (got a build project about to start from Jim Richmond's old car). But I'm just one voice - the idea is we all get a vote and figure it all out. The drops cover those that can't attend the distant races.
