Just checked out the site. The place is BIG! Lots of room to really stretch the Tigers legs. We had to borrow extra cones. Yes, the forecast is for it to be hot. Who cares? It’s hot everywhere. We will have coolers with water, but bring your own if you can and lunch/snacks and umbrellas for shade/sunscreen. We are technically not allowed more than two easy ups, which will be used for timing and registration.
Our location on the runways is a bit tricky to find, but we will have C.A.T. directional signage. Off the I 5 at Sand Canyon Blvd, Marine Way is the first right turn immediately east of the freeway. At the first T intersection, turn right toward the “AMCI Drive Center” . Signage will direct you the rest of the way.
The track management will have a waiver to sign for them. Then pick up a tech inspection/ signup/ C.A.T. waiver form. See Steve Alcala to get tech inspected and signoff before paying Rick Mueller, our esteemed treasurer. We can use plenty of volunteers to get there early to set up cones, chalk the course, take delivery of the Porta Potty and other glamorous jobs.
If we are on time setting up the course, driving meeting will be at 9.
If you are a bit new to this, no worries. Plenty of nice folks to help you learn the course and basic chalk-talk. If you just want to come and watch, please do. No charge if you don’t run. Passengers OK if over 18 years and have a helmet.
Many thanks to Dan Walters for kindly towing the equipment trailer from San Bernardino, and back .
We have the place to ourselves all day so let’s take maximum advantage. I expect we will wrap up no later than 3 or when everyone is maxed out.
See you there,
Mike Michels, 2014 C.A.T. president.
