FAIRMONT BUTTE MOTORSPORTS PARK NEEDS YOUR HELP!!!!
In an unusual turn of events, the environmentalist community has secured a follow-up LA County Planning Commission meeting on Saturday, Feb. 6, in Lancaster. These meetings would normally occur in downtown Los Angeles on a weekday. The effect will be to make it much easier to pack the room with anti-track environmentalists. It is very important that we get a large turnout of Fairmont Butte Motorsports Park supporters. NUMBERS COUNT!!! Tom Malloy has offered to provide bus transportation for track supporters from his race shop in Corona and his Trench Shoring business location in Gardena to Lancaster for this critical meeting. Tom has said he will also provide lunch to those supporters. Tom is willing to do this if he can get enough supporters to fill a bus. NOW is the time to act to help secure a facility that will support our passion.
Please contact Tom Malloy at malloyco@aol.com to reserve a space on one of his buses. Otherwise, make arrangements to travel on your own. YOUR SUPPORT IS CRITICALLY NEEDED.
Also, please ALERT any clubs and/or individuals that attend open track driving events. And, don’t forget to send letters of support to the LA County Planning Commission and the LA County Supervisor as described in the linked flyer (click here for flyer).

HOLIDAY PARTY TOY DRIVE
Our annual holiday party, held Saturday, December 5th, was an unequivocal success. It was a packed house as usual in terms of people and cars. Most importantly, the toy drive aspect of our get together resulted in the Club collecting over 200 toys which were donated to the LAPD Pacific Division's annual holiday toy drive. In addition to the toys, we also donated $1,000 to the cause through a combination of donations from party attendees, silent auction proceeds and a contribution from the Club treasury. These funds were used by the Pacific Division folks to purchase even more toys for their toy drive.
The Pacific Division invited us to bring out our cars to their toy give-away on the 19th so about a dozen of us met up at Steve and Chris's shop and made the several-block drive over to Pacific Division headquarters. It was great to see first hand just how much the toys were appreciated by the kids. Each child got to go into the big tent full of toys (without adult supervision) and pick out a toy. From there, it was over to visit Santa to get any last minute wishes in. Afterward, there was plenty of food for all and a snow slide for the kids (and certain Club members who couldn't resist).
During the evening, the Los Angeles Ciy Councilman Bill Rosendahl presented the Club with a certificate of recognition for our part in helping make the evening a huge success. Please click here to view pictures of the party and the Pacific Division's toy give-away.
