I'd love to, Anthony, but there's just no way this year. I'd really like to meet you someday, though. Maybe 2018.

Hey Tony, are you coming this year?
I don't own a speedster........

And I don't think you want to do that, Noel; it invites discussions that you don't want to have with authorities in places where it isn't legal. Crossing international borders, for example- A US border guard would take one look at it and start asking rather pointed questions, and even admitting smoking pot (and breaking the law) when you were waaay younger could get you on the no enter list as a possible felon. We cross the border into Point Roberts, WA almost weekly during the summer (in-laws own a house on the beach) and it doesn't take much for a border guard to decide you are undesirable. And once it's done, it's pretty hard to reverse, as these guys have the authority to make these decisions. Trying to appeal to superiors that it's the wrong call is generally a waste of time.
PS- What Will said; also, it should be
LOWER!!!
ALB,,,is that why none of our celebrities have been able to flee the country to Canada after the election?? Makes perfect sense now, I was waiting for the sound of those idiots creating a sucking sound as the cesspool drained...
Somehow, I wouldn't expect to see almost anyone trying to flee to "The Great White North" at this time of year, unless they're going skiing.
St. Bart's or St. Kitt's, maybe, but not Canada.
Couldn't you just keep them all in SoCal??? Makes it easier for the rest of us.
Thanks!

Hey, are you there?????? Put down that saw and nail gun for a second and come on the SOC for a minute.
I traded my nail gun and Skil saw for a rock saw and trowel... I'm here now that everyone has my attention. Glad to see the interest in this event, but due to new CA legislation, it is illegal for me "to host any event that may or may not include any vessels or vehicles that create any measurable pollutants identified by the State of CA in B&P section 43110658(A)(2)(d)(3) when those vessels or vehicles are registered in any other state outside of CA."
I know,,,it's a bitch, but sorry guys. We're moving the event to Roswell, NM where we will now add a Bonneville like speed contest, dusty burnout contest, etc. Did I mention that this event will have to be held in August due to BLM restrictions??
Sorry for any confusion or dissapointment, but GERD wasn't coming!
Stay tuned for more details....

That's okay, Tony, you know how to fix a speedster. Besides, a lot of people show up in different kinds of cars. It's not the cars, buddy!

I herby nominate Tony for status as a Lifetime Honorary Member of the SOC.
Okay,,,Here is the official information regarding dates...
We will be staying at the same hotel since it seems to be the most accommodating and convenient for our group. The dates are June 9th through June 11th. For those who wish to stay through Sunday the 11th and checkout on Monday the 12th, the hotel will take care of that when you call.
The rooms will be under the SOC or Speedster Group. We currently have 25 rooms blocked. In the past we've struggled to fill all the rooms and usually hit around 20 rooms, but with the interest this year I would suggest jumping on this ASAP so you're not left out.
As a side note, the room rate increased from $185 to $195, but given the price of real estate these days, I'm going to say that's nominal especially given their hospitality in the past.

Thanks, Scott! Making my reservations now.
Does anybody have thoughts about what you want to do this time around? Tour of the Hearst Castle? Golf? Wine tour? Long drive up to Big Sur? Walking tour of SLO? Me? I like to drive but I know Donna hates to ride around in a Speedster... Maybe it's just you, Rusty.
WHERE AT IN ROSWELL?

Area 51. Your home, little buddy!

Anthony - while this event started as a Speedster event, it has actually evolved into a Run-What-You-Brung event. We have several SOCers no longer with Speedsters bring their other favorite car. Hope to see you there!
@slofuzz thanks for hooking us up with the hotel again. Just made our room reservation.
Looking forward to hanging out with our knucklehead SOC friends!
Here's a refresher on last year's shenanigans!

How non-PCA of you.
Room is reserved for Chrissy and I. I watched Jim's video, what was the deal we worked out with the park ranger for the parking fee???
Scott thanks for organizing the hotel.

So! They are several people that join us each year and they don't have Speedsters.

The price increase is due to the amount of free beer we drink when the bar opens up.

And that's the truth!!!
I helped the price go up...and didn't even stay there!

Scott, you are the best !!! Thanks for your hard work organizing this. Karine and I are in ... trying to round up a few more of us Zonie Speedster Pilots. Can't wait to see all our SOC knuckleheads and their better halves !

You may not drink beer but you do drink everything else!!

Not true Will. You should have stayed a little longer. Was it 2016 or 2015 when GERD fell in the fire pit? Doesn't matter, GERD is fun to watch.
I'll be watching this year!
I JUST GOT A RESTRAINING ORDER FROM ATTENDING THE EVENT BY THE POLICE DEPT
Sounds like you'll just have to come to Carlisle instead, GERD. The PA police don't know you... yet.
This is the most restrained he's ever been.

Seems to be a theme!!!
