Default ***EXPO 11 @ Buttonwillow on May 7th and 8th - Registration OPEN ***

West Coast Expo has been Canceled

I am both sad and disappointed, but we have to cancel the plannings of a west coast Expo due to lack of interest. Registration is closed at this point and I will be issuing refunds ASAP.

We are still planning to have an Expo. Exact date and location TBD and we are working on choosing an alternate location. I expect to have that information announced within the week.

I appreciate everyone’s support in trying to make a west coast event a reality, and I would encourage those that are local to the west coast to consider coming out to the Expo at its new location – it is always great to see people from all over the US make the event.

I just looked over the rules. Is it true that only instructors will be able to take passengers? Also, I've been to about 12 track days since 2002, and since I go somewhat infrequently, I consider myself intermediate, and I used r-comps for the last four events I have been to.

I noticed in the rules that only advanced drivers will be allowed to have R-comps. I understand not letting beginners use r-comps, but intermediate too? Seems kind of restrictive.

Both are measures of safety for others. What clubs do you run with that allow anybody besides instructors to carry passengers? that's a pretty standard rule. I wouldn't consider either to be dealbreakers.

No time to open that can of worms. The california dudes are getting a fair shot, there are plenty of other events to do if you're itching to get out.

Plus if E12 has a remote chance of being where they're going to diligently try for then E11 can be in Cambodia for all I care.

Registered. I'll send payment from work tomorrow as it has (somewhat of a more) secured fire-wall

Here in CA, I've run with Redline, Speedventures, and NCRC, and the only passenger restriction I ran into was none for beginners. Well rules are rules, if end up going, I'll follow them.

I would go to E11 but I would need a few days off from work (which I wont get) so i'll wait for the next one.

Exceptions have been made for certain Advanced groups, but overall, we have to keep a close eye on safety. This is both for everyone's good as well as liabilities.

Intermediate group at this event has historically (with the exception of last year) been a Novice 2 in a way. I don't see any reason why someone with less than 10 events under their belt should be on any kind of r-comp.

I hope that helps. Let me know if you have any questions.

My guess would be Mid-Ohio.

I'm 100% sure that in that scenario refunds would be issued and if I remember correctly this was already cleared up before.....
