Thumbs up Marina is saved!!!
Just got word, the FAA backed off and the Marina airport is saved for autocross for another year.

The best autocross site in the bay area is saved!!!!!

All of the clubs were holding back on booking stuff until the approval happened.
I know GGLC immediately booked a ton of dates

I thought Marina Motorsports already had all their bookings. MM was set, the city was set, and all the various clubs already had their dates. They were just waiting on the FAA.

Actually, Crows Landing is the best autox site in the bay area. It's grippier and HUGE compared to marina

Marina is also close to Monterey. Making it great to go do AutoX and then get some delicious chowdah!

Good to see this happening. I could see potential revenue and local business dips if they followed through.

This is most likely true based on what I know of how SCCA plans things.

Yeah, but you're weird.

Crows is 20miles closer for me, and I prefer its surface. Marina is all push unless I want to make adjustments... Who wants go through all that?!? LOL
