> On behalf of everyone in the SCTA - could you all pass the word -
> In order to know when a meet is on or off - call the SCTA Office at
> 805-526-1805 -
> Do not depend upon anyone other than the official source -
>
> Unfortunately, about 25 competitors got bogus information from a source
> who has done this before - and believed the June meet was cancelled.
>
> Instead, Mike Manghelli (SCTA Vice President) met with the Bureau of
> Land Management at 6:30 AM on Friday, June 4th, at El Mirage and
> determined there were two miles of good dry solid lake bed to run on and
> got the ok from the BLM to use the West entrance only for the meet.
> (there was damp lake bed on the East end - so the East entrance was
> blocked by the BLM).
>
> We also had an incredible tail wind - and 23 new records were set.
> Les Leggit's entry #500 actually went 297 mph.
>
> Anyway - check out the results!
