What exit should I take off of Hwy 50 to get to Prairie City OHV?

Google Maps says to get off at Zinfandel Dr, but that route looks like a goofy.

Was there talk of an event in Vallejo?

I didn't make it to the last one and I don't think tomorow is happening either .

The wagon should be up and running sometime this week though, so with any luck it'll be ready for the next event. I'm very tempted to bring the MR2 up but I don't want to pay the tow truck bill to bring it back

Ed, I was at LIC when your car arrived- without it's engine. I'm sorry that wasn't fixed months ago.
Hopefully Prarie City will be a great rallyx venue for some time to come. Maybe we'll see you at Antioch on June 24th.

it was super windy and really dry. the dirt this time was pretty slippery and light as well, it took me a little longer to get used to it
wasnt quite as hot as last time.

they actually set up a new track that was a bit longer, maybe by 5 seconds or so

thanks Brent and all for a great event!! I had a blast!

I'm kinda sad we had no time for morning fun runs, thanks to timer problems, but oh well.

OHV park is a great place! I just hate that I have to drive 2.5 hrs to get there.

I CAN'T WAIT FOR RESULTS AND PICS (hint hint)

BTW, the wind kept the ambient temp down but kicked up enormous dust storms. I've got dust everywhere in my car.

the wind kept things from getting really hot, but it coated us in a think layer of dirt.

Hope everyone had fun despite the dust. We'll actually consider grid, t/s, on the up wind side of the course for future events. Just need to have start and finish capabilities.

We'll be talking with the park for future dates after the Hangtown MX event, only 40,000 spectators there. We'll plan on not doing events in ridiculous high temps.

Actually I want to plan a rally"cross" school next, not a rally school, but a rallycross school. We have plenty of room for all sorts of disciplines.

Definitely those who missed out missed a wider course, also. The more events we do, the better everything will get.
