well vallejo rc holda practice races every sunday in the longs drugs parking lot in fairfield(towards the solano mall and is much closer than rocks) these practice races start when the season starts and it depends who is going to bring the trailer where all the track stuff is every sunday. but its all for fun and for free too! it starts dfrom 10am to about late in the evening. they race anything! so yea.

Don't know what happened to Henry's regular races, but this is just a poll to see if anyone's interested in resurrecting the Mission College racing.

Dou have to be a ROAR member or ROCKs member to race? Anyone know how much is the fee?

what you are basically paying for is the roar membership insurance fee thing(so that just incase your car goes wild and hits a bystandard, you got insurance) so yea.
