Miramar Speed Circuit gathering re-visited

[PShipman]

When last we talked about this subject we inadvertantly "kind of" used the "K" word ...

Martha ... what would happen if we just planned a Porsche outing to the Miramar Speed CAFE as a get-together ... would that be an OK-Legal-Meet-Zone-8 rules outing???

A trouble maker's ... I mean inquring mind wants to know

Why does it have to be a club event? Can't we just decide a place and time and then have fun?

[Steve Grosekemper]

Last month I sent and email to a bunch of drivers with young kids and we filled a run group.
Kids did the Jr. driving school (which I highly recommend) and then everyone was in for open laps for 2-3 sessions.
No waivers no permission just a bunch of friends with severe competition issues.... But I digress.

Then we went to Denny's for lunch.

Really great day for only half the price of a 2-day time trial...

Steve,

What about those of us without kids? Can we go to this informal get-together, or do we have to borrow a niece or nephew?

[Irksome]

I'm interested, and I think my 6 year old would also be interested. Weekends are booked until the 23rd, but we're pretty open after that...

Linda and I have four (4??? ... eh gads) golden retrievers ... do they count as kids????

Mark, you can borrow my son. Preferably for blocks of time roughly equal to a nice meal and a movie, to ensure you get sufficient quality time...

Not a problem Mark...
You can borrow my 14-year old daughter Staci.
And transport is not a problem since you are only a few doors down.
But beware, she beat one of the adults last time out (an AX/TT driver) and was really upset at only taking out one of the grown-ups.
She is expecting her own spec car for her 16th birthday (Purple with 2 yellow stripes down the middle) So watch your back!
And feeding her is the cheap part... soda and a corn dog and she is good.

Tim Comeau pulled something together a few weeks back with some 944 owners and it worked out fine as a non-club event. Now if they served alcohol it could be a Tuesday social. Let me see now, karts and drinks, that could be trouble... Never mind

[GT3Girl]

I thought one had to be at least 16 to autocross and 18 with valid driver's license to TT.

[GT3Girl]

Steve! my bad. I thought she was autocrossing as a 14 year old. WOW!
Nice to have potential lady racers waiting in the wings!

[Rsylvestri]

Steve ,

That sounds like alot of fun, I know my 10 year old daughter loved it when I took her to speed circut.
I'm in if the dates work!

[chris914]

How old do kids have to be? I have a 8 year old boy and 10 year old girl and myself.

So three kids total if you ask my wife.

[harnishclan]

Hey Perry,

If dogs (and cats) count then I have enough for everybody! A nick over 200 at last count.

[mrondeau]

OK - I see that borrowing a kid is pretty easy to do. When do we race. I'll make sure I bring my kleenex so I can cry myself to sleep after I get chicked by a 14 year old girl.
