I would check, and get this in writing.
Also, if this is the same place that I think it is. Some where 580 merges into 5. This place has one way in, but there is another way (out). A dirt road through a farm. The good old street races made this a hot spot. I think its patroled by MP's
But if we had permision, and swept the runways, this would be a fun place

sal I agree however if we do it the "Correct way" someone will have to pay a pretty penny for insurance.

which unfortunately is always the limiting factor on this type of fun. I'd rather have someone with insurance and safety equipment than a loosely organized group of people out there. much safer with the ins. and safety teams.

not that I have the money to pay for it - Im' just saying tha't smy preference

I have been doing my research on Abandoned airports and I tried goin to Castle AFB on friday in atwater CA, it was very nice drive and very fun to play in dirt but the Runways were fenced off so no luck on that part. so far the "other" airport seems best.

BTW it is not patrolled by MP we were there today from 9am to about well something after 3 I dont remeber but all there was is a little town sheriff who agreed to anything I would say. This airport is owned by the county of stanislaus if anything we need to talk to them.
