Hi guys!

Is there any Nissan events in June? I will stay in the LA area for a month and would love to visit some sort of car events. Drifting, drag or a regular meet with nice cars and some food.

Any ideas?

Thanks man!

Just want some help to translate the events, hard to now if "the regular wednesday meet" is a small thing between friends or a big one with hundreds of cars. I hope you understand what I mean, crappy English...

Sounds really nice! Arcadia sounds awsome, would love to see both jap and US cars, the C6 and Viper is really rare here.

I read there was some legal night drag event going on as well, ever been there?

Checked drifting.com now and there´s no drifting event in the LA area if I understand it correctly.

We visited the Long Beach event last year, really nice and great to meet Rhys Millen and Samuel Hubinette, even forced Samuel to talk Swedish for a while. Crazy cars and people all over the place!

June 16, 2007 - in Southern California @ El Toro Marine Base (about 40 minutes - 1 hour drive from LA) there is a Gymkhana event. You may enjoy that very much. I probably won't be there, but FRSport will be attending (one of the forum sponsors - all of them drive 240's).http://www.gymkhanausa.com

June 23/34, 2007 - in Southern California @ Fontana Speedway - there's an autox practice & championship. Many fast domestics & imports, very nice people overall. You can come on Saturday & get ride-alongs etc. You can compete either day (23rd is pre-reg, 24th show up and drive).http://www.solo2.com

What are you doing in CA for a month - business, vacation, pimpin? haha.

lol, go check out venice beach, not far from LA....Definitely some of the weirdest people I've come across in Cali (semi famous for having crazy bearded hippiest on roller blades skating up and down the beach playing guitar....)

Cool scenery though, a spot I would try and check out.
