The OCRC track event I went last Sunday was pretty awesome. It was more like a track day, 20 minutes per session. You might wanna try it next time instead of AX.

meeting is at 11:15, so I want to try to be there around 10:30, 11 at the latest.

i'm thinking of leaving my house (91307) around 8:30?

So let's try to meet up around the 405 118 5 around say... 9-9:15?

Exit the 118 at Sepulveda sound good? There are plenty of gas stations and stuff there.

PM me and let's coordinate this

Passing was allowed for advance group, but that's pretty much useless. Because SOW is a tight track, there aren't that many place you can do safe passing. also there was about 20-25 cars in a session in a 1.8 mile small track, if you are fast enough, what you are doing is keep passing.
It's good to practice passing technic, but it sucks if you wanna get a good lap time. I probably won't run with this organizer any more, not at SOW at least.

It was cause this time, they were sharing it with Speed Ventures for the first half of the day.

After 4PM, it was much better

They don't usually share sessions so I'm not sure what happened.

at Horse Thief mile, there was 15 cars per session on the 1 mi course with 80 people there. it was fun.

But yeah SOW isn't a place to really pass people... the Big Track is

I past people a lot, but then again I was in the Beginner group.
I was there for fun and to learn, not lap top.

I got a 1.40. slow, but i enjoyed myself
