Here's some pics w/commentary (Vettezuki). Click for larger images.

The lighting sucked, but the facility was AWESOME. I look forward to coming back and racing myself. When I did this a couple years ago they were still gas, they're electric now and they look like they really accelerate quite nicely.

SeanPlunk. Never has a person who has never done drugs and even drank look so high . . . Perhaps it's best he hasn't.

Original Post

We will meet in front of the Anaheim facility at 2:00p.m. on Sunday. If you pay at the facility the cost is roughly $26 for a license and a 14 lap race. If you have a Costco membership you can get the same thing for about $16 by going to Costco and purchasing in advance. I also managed to find a coupon for $5 off that you can print out and use. Here is the coupon:

If you have a helmet you should bring it as I believe they are required. After we all race, I thought we could go to dinner if everyone is up to it. One option would be to go through Santiago Canyon to Fuddruckers in Lake Forest. If anyone else has other suggestions though, I'm happy to hear them. It should be a blast! Here (http://www.motorgen.com/forum/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=1251&day=2009-10-4) is the calendar link with address. Anyone is welcome and winner gets bragging rights :)

See you all there!

Sean

Sean,

We should call the facility and see if you use the Costco Tickets for K1 if this offer still applies for the buy 1 get 1.

[BlacknBoostn]

I'm thinking single races. I'm planning on using the buy one, get one promotion. $26 for two races seems good to me :D

[Damian]

[SeanPlunk]

I'm excited. I'm thinking of going with this route (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=1000+N.+Edward+Ct.+anaheim+ca+92806&daddr=S+Imperial+Hwy+to:33.768303,-117.723999+to:Glenn+Ranch+Rd+to:23621+El+Toro+Road +Lake+Forest+CA,+92630&geocode=%3BFWJRBAIdcKH6-A%3B%3BFazNAQIdCND8-A%3B&hl=en&mra=dpe&mrcr=1&mrsp=2&sz=11&via=2,3&sll=33.748322,-117.710266&sspn=0.266056,0.676346&ie=UTF8&ll=33.736903,-117.726746&spn=0.266091,0.676346&t=h&z=11) to Fuddruckers through Santiago Canyon.

[Meanchicken]

What time you think you'll end up at fudd's?
I might roll over in the Camaro.
The GN is at Lou's for some needed repairs and maintenance.

Not sure yet, but I'd imagine we'll leave K1 at between 4 or 5. Would you like me to call you when we finish?

[joedls]

You guys give me a call. Fudds isn't too far from me if I'm done at the office. My # is 714-936-0611.

[Leedom]

Oh, and I'm going to beat you this Sunday :pot_stir:

Even with the 85lbs advantage you have on me, I am going to whip your candy-ass!!

[Damian]

Im going to try and sneak out of the house for K1, I need my speed fix. Im going through withdrawls.:truestory:

[SeanPlunk]

Leaving the house now - woot woot!

[BlacknBoostn]

This was tons of fun guys!! We need to be doing stuff like this more often :)

[linkwpc]

It was lots of fun! I just need to loose weight and get more speed in the corners!

[SeanPlunk]

I need to learn how to drive, LOL :surrender:

[Douglas Mariani]

Sorry I missed it....we had a Suprise visit from family from Arizona.

It will happen again. If for no other reason than for Sean to have his chance at revenge . . .

Some pics coming soon.

It was expensive, but I would definitely do it again at least once a year. I'll probably organize the next one before one of our meets sometime next year.

[Leedom]

:truestory:

I had a blast and whipping Sean's Candy-A$$ was all the beter. :nutkick: It is not the cheapest thing to do but it is a hell of a lot chaeper than putting your car into the wall at a track! Plus beating Sean twice was classic. Everyone note Sean's avitar and title, very nice! You are such a good sport Sean. Bring on the revenge. I smell a Motorgen video on that one. Ben, we need to talk about it! Did I mention I killed Sean! I am done. No more Sean. Lots of fun. :bigthumbsup:

[Vettezuki]

It was expensive, but I would definitely do it again at least once a year. I'll probably organize the next one before one of our meets sometime next year.

I was thinking about what their total operation costs must be and honestly . . . I don't know how they make any money unless they're subsidized a little by professional racing series and equipment manufacturer's some how.

[Vettezuki]

See OP for pics.

Hmm what did I miss?????........do tell

[Douglas Mariani]

Great Pictures Ben.....Love the commentary's

[kdracer73]

Frankie and I had fun hanging out with everyone . It Sucked not being able to race :( Next time , if I'm off the injured reserve list, I will spank Sean also !!

[SeanPlunk]

I have bruises EVERYWHERE from racing. I have 2 large one on my back and a really large one on my left leg. Well worth it though - that was really fun.

[BRUTAL64]

Did i miss something here? How lucky for you guys I did not go.:sm_laughing:

[SexyLxy]

I have bruises EVERYWHERE from racing. I have 2 large one on my back and a really large one on my left leg. Well worth it though - that was really fun.

And they weren't from me :p

[linkwpc]

So any videos yet??

[Vettezuki]

So any videos yet??

I have them transferred to computer but not edited yet. Will do ASAP, which means this weekend sometime probably.

[Vettezuki]

See OP for video.

[Leedom]

Love the vid Ben. We need to try and get out hands on a few more cameras for future K1 Racing. I talked with Sean about the video for K1: SeanPlunk's Revenge! and I think we can make a pretty great video.

On a side note... if Sean had not admitted to spinning me... we now have video proof of it!!

[Douglas Mariani]

Great Video Ben.....The captions were funny:thumbs_up:
