I need some autoX lessons. I'll let someone drive it if they show me the ropes...

Greetings Autocross Drivers,

As a reminder, your first opportunity in 2014 to get your car around some cones is March 8th/9th at Sears Point/Sonoma Raceway! Come out and scrub some tires!

The Format - This will be our typical Autocross program with a course set-up in the back paddock AND a skid pad set-up at the Turn #7 paddock/parking area.

Course Time - Because we limit the number of entrants at this event we're able to provide each of you a very large amount of time on course. Hours vs. minutes!

The Team - Trekkor Wills and his team will be running this activity so if you have any specific questions about the format, etc. please contact Trekkor directly at: trekkor@willstile.com Trekkor will also be sending out additional event details for the Autocross the week before the event.

Event Registration - is open now on the www.trackmasters-racing.com website and the cost is $75 for the day and we will have the opportunity to cancel and refund fees if significant rain is predicted 48 hours before the event.

Come out and get the rust off your cars and yourself this next month!

Thanks and have a great week!


Come out any run. Tons of seat time with instructors if you want. I think a couple other guys from here are going to come out. This is March 8th.

Fremont CA, My issue is that I found my inlet transmission cooler hose leaking the one that goes from the transmission to the radiator i just bought a new hose from bmw this morning. While monitoring the inlet hose leak saw a small puddle of coolant leaking(just started leaking i think, didn't notice it before) the puddles between the skid plate kind of next to the oil pan.

Thanks for offering help maybe we can meet up someday.

the bleed screw may be loose or a hose may be leaking.

run the car up in the air and look to see where the leak is coming from.

Might be moving up to the bay the end of March. Got a job lined up with Tesla.

just dont. no one i have ever talked to liked working there. unless you hate having a life and 10h/6d/w is your thing.

I would look for something close to your work. Try Fremont or Milpitas those are good areas to live, the only downside would be rent it's kind of expensive out here it will be kind of hard finding something for around that price, you will be lucky to find a 1 bedroom. Best thing would be to get room mates and get a nice spot.

I got through the first like 4 interviews at tesla and then never heard back. Wasn't even mad. Every interviewer I spoke to said the hours were super long and the pay was shit because it was a "job of passion." Yeah no thanks, I'm good. Would be a good resume builder though.

Maybe their ways have changed since they turned a profit.

I have a friend who's paying 3300 for a studio in soma. It started somewhere in the 2500s and then they raised his rent by a grand after the first year.

he's trying to move.
