SoCalT Driving Event, October 19-20
Posted: Mon Sep 23, 2024 10:26 am
Save the Date info just sent out, contact me at email address below and I will forward info / sign-up sheet on to you, put you directly in touch.
Backroads drive thru every possible twisty to be found. (Google maps show 2 hours point-to-point, we take ~6 to do same)
I will not be able to join in this year, but it is a very welcoming group.
October 19-20.
https://www.socaltt.com/ (though the website is pretty sparse, and doesn't get updated until pics come out AFTER the event!)
While in the past "pre-'75 cars" was a rule, that is much less strict than before. (and if you sign up and your intended ride breaks down day before just drive along in anything!)
"Fiat made cars during that time, so this is a 1984 Fiat Spider!"
(no year restrictions / rules if you prefer to do it on 2 wheels, those of us in cars help out by schlepping your luggage)
Note: we help with luggage, leave your "baggage" at home, whether on 2 wheels or 4.
Very informal, irreverent group.
You will usually find 2-4 cars that are choosing the same pace, so don't really need to follow along the instructions/route sheet, if you find yourself unsure just pull over and wait until a cool car comes along, then drop in behind them.
There is always a "fast group" if one chooses. (yes, that is often the 510 guys!)
In the email address shown below, swap out an O (oh) for the two Zeroes.

From the dis-organizer:
Howdy All,
As usual, Southern California is on fire, so we are shooting at a moving target here, but the likely destination for the TT this year is Desert Hot Springs. If everything goes according to plan we will be staying at a resort hotel/spa with 24 hour access to natural mineral hot springs...
I hope the church group booked for the same weekend has a sense of humor...
Please forward this and the app to like minded individuals or groups, the more the merrier.
The So Cal TT is a Vintage car and motorcycle focused road rally that explores the back roads of Southern California. The daily goal is 250 miles of spirited driving. At least 98% of the route will be on paved roads, but having said that, you will be much happier if you have at least 4" of ground clearance.... Ask Raj about the rock that killed the Dartillac...
Hotel accommodation, route sheet, stickers, tee shirt, and awards dinner on day 2 are included in your entry.
This year, the TT is a two day event, Saturday and Sunday, October 19-20...
Nuff said. If you have questions, ask.
See you on the Road, Bronze!
