Just for PWC, Since we are a sponsor we get passes.

I've never been to Laguna Seca so any travel/camping/locations to shoot tips will be appreciated.
Mark may be going up there. And Shea is racing for sure. I think we are doing a suspension cam on her car. I have only been there once and camped out. it was cheap. I think $12-$15 a night?

How are the toilets? It's hard to um, deploy the Marines out to sea when there are spiders fastroping down from the ceiling like in the Buttonwillow bathrooms.

I bet the TP is the fall apart recycled kind. Thank goodness for Clorox wipes.

I have Clorox wipes. Of course they're the same size container as the ArmorAll glass wipes. Just have to check the label before using haha.

amateurs. Gotta have that soft, thick ply even for the emergency road side poo. Don't get me started on camping. Just make sure it's stored in a good ziplock style bag.

Some of the items found in the burn area lol. Some of them were still active and had to be disarmed. Each day crews were finding UXOs. Every now and then crews would her booms and a couple times dozer hit mortar rounds and set them off. Luckily they did not hit any tank busters.

The scary ones are LAW rockets that are out of their tubes. They look like plain metal pipes. An Army Ranger Captain picked up one during the Panama invasion and lost both eyes, left leg, right hand, most of fingers on left hand, and some toes on his right foot.
