Default Final update for la invasion



LA Invasion 2012 is back on! In the spirit of continuing the tradition of Westbound, “Vegas LSX Car Club” will be hosting this years LA Invasion 5. Having worked closely with Mark since the beginning, we’re honored to have the opportunity to do this event in his absence.

Since many of the tracks have closed, we will be doing a more relaxed event… IE No track day. We are keeping the Big Bear cruise and will have a Car Show / Raffle on the second day. Our goal is to have an inexpensive event in order to include as many cars as possible. Unfortunately no shirts this year.

Mark your calendars now… LA Invasion 2012 is back on (May 26-27th 2012).

I just parked at Wildwood park, I'm the first one here. It's cloudy and the roads might be a little damp up there. It's dry here in the park.

Cruise was great. Weather was iffy in the beginning, but it cleared up and the cruise back down was way better! The group size was nice, too. Hard to get lost. Nice meeting you guys and seeing friendly faces again... Hopefully somebody will pick this up for next year!
