Coronado Historic Automobile Races
Sunday, 10 October

Roger Grago has asked that I share the following information. Several R Gruppe members have attended this event in years past. Now it’s even better with a catered a breakfast and VIP parking.

R Gruppe, Early S and PCA members might be interested in the Coronado Historic races coming Sunday October 10 to San Diego.
My good friend Paul Hastings has arraigned a wonderful day at the races for us. Sunday morning we can enjoy a catered breakfast at the Glorietta bay on the Coronado Island. At breakfast VIP car corral passes will be handed out. These passes will provide you VIP parking at the track car corral. Right on the front straight close to the main grandstand. This large corral is reserved for sports cars of every type.

Using the information below please contact Paul directly and he will save you a VIP car corral parking pass and for only $15 you can enjoy a wonderful breakfast in picturesque Glorietta bay on Coronado Island. Tickets to enter the event itself are seperate and you must order these yourself.
Please open the attachment below for Coronado race event ticket information.

If you’d like to make a weekend of it, on Saturday the PCA is holding an AX in the large Qualcomm stadium parking lot. Qualcomm stadium is located just 10 minutes from the Coronado Island.
We have Helmets for rent and instruction available. Or just come out to race the clock and see if you are faster than your buddies. You can email me at mgagen@cox.net if you would like more info.
Best regards,
Mike Gagen

Cheri and I are planning to go to the event. I do not think we will go to the breakfast. Duane Hyatt is planning on bringing his new 73 Viper Green RS, and I will bring my new 69S Signal Green. We went last year and it was a great event. The races start at 1:00pm, and go on until about 5:00pm. Maybe some of you want to meet for dinner somewhere after the event, maybe in Carlsbad on the way back up the I-5. Let me know, and I can make some reservations.

Great! Looking forward to seeing you guys at the event. Remember if you don't have a car corral parking pass, then no vip parking for you. If you would rather not park in the far away public parking area and would prefer to park with other Porsches and sports cars it would be a good idea to secure a car corral pass before the event. Contact Paul Hastings and he might be able to help you out.
Either way see you at the races.

Deadline to send in your breakfast reservations is this Friday.
