Default Los Angeles Invasion May 23-25

The website is updated and you can sign up now

www.losangelesinvasion.com/index.htm




Most questions can be answered on the website.

it will be all day TNT (no brackets this year) so you should get a few more passes.

I am still working on a Skidpad and/or burnout competition.

The auto cross is NEW

I wold like to split up some of the events to different days i.e. Racing/car show, but I need to work on rearranging the shcedule to accomodate that and not sure it will be this year. I am thinking we will move the car show to the dyno day so we can get more participation.

We are going to do 2 Dyno days and pit Shop vs. Shop for the crown so be sure to sign up with your respective loyalties to support them. Limit 20 per shop.

This year it will be
1. STD Street Tuning and Dyno

vs.

2. CMS Cunningham Motorsports

There will be trophies for King of the Dyno for each shop as well as One for the shop that 1. Higherst HP and 2. total combined HP

So be sure to show your support in this event and sign up.

ROTW Cruise will be unchanged still a catered BBQ at the top (Chicken and Tri Tip etc...) Hope to have over 100 cars this year and some warmer weather. Bring your Football, Friszbee, etc... for soe entertainment at the park and camera for some awesome views.

Last year we has 155 Drag race cars. Same limit this year to 150.

Live band, Bikini Girls, Raffle, Car show (larger thou) Beer garden should all be in place again this year.

Last year 3 NHRA licences got issued at our event!!! including our own Mike Haddad

Plus the Auto Cross will be limited to 50 cars and held in the Northern parking lot of California Speedway. A course of orange cones will be set up and there will be some corners et up to test your driving ability. Sessions will be 20 -40 minutes (I will leave that to who I designed to run that event)

Flyers will be available to everyone to pass out and help build the event, please PM if you would like some and we can meet up at some point.

If you can help wil sponsors that would be appreciated. We do not have a car stereo shop yet! and yet we all love tunes and this would be a great opportunity for a shop so If you know one that may be interested let me know.

Perhaps we could set up a Sound off competition as well.

Be sure to sign up early for the racing last year it sold out and some folks were dissappointed.

The website will be updated every few days so please don't panic if you do not see you name up there right away. Also make sure to tell me your screen name so i can match it to who you are (this prevents duplicates and mistakes)

Lets go have some Fun!

Last year we all stayed at the hotel and I bought a whole bunch of beer and we had a big party at the Hotel. I also had the leftovers from the BBQ earlier that day.

Then some folks walked over to Dave and Busters or Gameworks for some more fun.

We will do it again this year. The hotel is right at the Ontario Mills Mall and beats having to drive very far both after the cruise or in the morning to the track.

A few questions I hope someone can answer:

1) Can I sign up for both Drag and AutoX? How many runs do you expect I could get in for each if I switch half way through?

2) Sign up looks like its per car. Can my wife and I split the driving chores?

thanks

Yes you can sign up for both the drag racing and the AutoX (you may have to attend a breifing for the auto X after you clear tech inspection) I would expect that you could get about 5-6 passes at the strip. Not sure exactly how long the sessions will last at the Auto X still working on hiring someone to run it.

Yes it is per car so you could switch off, one of you will have to pay the entry fee ($7 preregistered or $10 day of) as a spectator/pit crew.
