Featuring four autocross events in five days, along with a scenic cruise route and organized social activities each day, The Road Trip captures all of the driving elements that appeal to true grassroots automotive enthusiasts. Each day of the event will start with a 100-200 mile cruise, followed by five hours of autocross, finishing up with a catered dinner and parking lot party.

Wrong side of the country for me but it sounds like a great setup!
:thumbsup:

Sounds like fun but it bothers me that they have no hotel information posted for any stops. Sounds like the plans are not quite complete. I have never heard of FM3.

If I'm not mistaken FM3 is Jim Day and and Cam, the same group/guys that put on the USCA stuff.

FM3 is Jimi and Walley who run Optima events, Power Tour and lots of others. By far the best most organized well run events out there. The hotels will be finalized in a couple days.

Did anyone look at the give aways? WOW!!!

We're flattered that you put Cam on our team, but Cam is the Director of Marketing and Product Development for OPTIMA Batteries. We're proud to have OPTIMA as a long time customer! We work closely with OPTIMA to produce the OPTIMA Search for the Ultimate Street Car series, USCA is the sanctioning body that puts on the series. Wally and I own both FM3 and USCA, Cam will likely stay at OPTIMA, his retirement package is way better!!

Thanks Smitty, appreciate the compliments. We are currently working on hotels and routes - hotels will likely be done by the end of next week, or shortly after Christmas. trying to reach people and plan during the holidays can be a bit of a challenge, but we wanted to get this event on everyone's calendar as we know there are a lot of choices out there.

Jimi, can we haul trailers with out STREETCARS? How cool would that be ? Doing some event planning this weekend, we'd love to do this. It's perfect for what we love to do with our cars and our friends!
