Chase 1 and 2 departed with jeep in tow. Very well supported by Nancy Delaney in the food department!! Many Thanks! Left Corvallis early evening the 7th, arrived L.A. at Trackside late morning the 8th. Trip went smoothly, got all the chase vehicles ready to go into Mexico and got all our tire support taken care of at Trackside. With a ceremonial trip to In and Out Burger looks like our tour of southern California is nearly complete. We will depart early a.m. the 9th for Mexico. Should prep jeep and be settled in by late that night. ~Dave
