Going on now is the Lake Elsinore Open. This event starts to wind down the season for RPM Racing which is the organization that promotes in the Southern California/Arizona area. IJSBA labels this district “Southwest.” Like many regions, there is a lot of history and a lot of legacy people walking the beach at the events. Tuners, wrenchers, and parents have been involved since the days when all of this got started. As the season winds down, some people have realized their dreams and goals, other people have coasted by and committed to earn their title sometime in the future, and others gave it their best shot only to have the dream of a win waiting for World Finals or another year. Each year is significant and, for those of us who have gone from teen to grey haired with this sport as our obsession, it is all one experience that has not ended yet. Good luck to everyone and thank you for keeping PWC Racing strong. Jettribe is the title sponsor of this series. Below is their press release:
