Western Regional

[Kevin M.]

Is there any kind of road tour or caravan driving up to the Golden Gate Western Regional on April 20th? I'm leaving from Burbank don't mind going it alone, but thought it would be neat to travel with a few more Corvettes. Tried the SCC site but no mention of a tour. If there isn't one and your leaving on the 20th let me know.

Kevin - if you want an interesting drive take US 101 to Ventura and go up over the mountains on CA 33, continue north on 33 through the south valley to Coalinga and then CA 198 west to CA 25 north through Hollister, which will take you back to US101 south of San Jose, then slog up the freeways to Berkeley to celebrate earth day with your no-tailpipe emission control Corvette.

That's the route I've been taking for years to the Bay area - sure beats dealing with all the trucks, SUVs, and left lane bandits on I5.

If you leave at 0500 33 over the mountains will be deserted. It's almost as good as a day at the track!

Humm that sounds like a blast. How long would a trip like that take?

Re: Western Regional

Figure a little over an hour longer than slogging up the freeway if you only make one fuel stop. Coalinga is a good place to gas up and get a bite to eat.
