<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="1">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2"> When you get to Buttonwillow Raceway there will be a $10.00 per person track charge. This money goes to the track and not VARA. You will get a wrist band for the weekend.<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoListParagraph"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="2" type="1">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2">The “Buttonwillow” exit is 10 miles south of the track and there is food, lodging and gas at this exit. The motels are modest but the VARA hotel (Motel 6) is very decent. Other hotels
are nicer (more expensive) but a fair distance from the track.<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoListParagraph"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="3" type="1">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2">Towing in California. If you are coming from another state CA has a 55 mph limit on vehicles towing. I will not comment on how dumb this is. This law is usually not ticketed in
my experience if you are driving in the 60-65 mph range. However, be alert and don’t be the rabbit. I run my radar detector in my RV and just lift when alerted.<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.25in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="4" type="1">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2">Radar Trap; Those of you coming from the east ( Barstow) through Mojave on CA-58 beware. From Boron to the Tehachapi grade the locale CHP runs a very lucrative radar trap. There
are miles of a great divided freeway around Mojave and they love to sit in the shadows and nail folks going 66 mph, or 56 mph if you are towing. This is a high wind area so be careful, you will note the 1,000 windmills on the hills and get the picture.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:12.0pt;margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2">
There is 10 miles of construction on CA-58 near the junction of US-395 (Kramer Junction) between Barstow and Mojave. They are bypassing this junction and all the new roads and bridges are going in. It will not be done so it is one lane each way and a stop
light at CA-58 & US-395 so it can be slow. North of this area is a very nice rest stop near Boron and this is the last rest area before Buttonwillow.<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="6" type="1">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2">I-5; The run to the track from LA on I-5 is on one of the most congested freeways in CA. The truck traffic is very heavy and I-5 runs through the mountains with vicious cross winds.
When you get to Frazier Park you are about to descend into the Central Valley down the Grapevine. This is very steep, track traffic is heavy and there will be trucks in the right lane going 10 mph. Two years ago one of our VARA guys on I-5 had a wheel banging
incident with an 18 wheel bulk oil hauler that resulted in a jackknifed truck and him trying to stay off the median wall with his race rig. His trailer stayed upright but was destroyed and bulk hauler was on it’s side. No one was hurt but the road was closed
for hours! The most dangerous thing you do all weekend will driving to and from the track.<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
