    Marina Airport - is that the old Fritche Army Airfield from the Fort Ord days? Thought those hangers looked familier. Worked in those hangers and on the area you autocrossed in. My first duty station in the army back in the late 70's, was a Huey helicopter Crewchief then. Showing my age now I guess.

    My wife of 29 years refuses to learn stick shift and doesn't understand why race. She tolerates me autocrossing, wrenching and showing my antique. I just look at it as my time. She has her hobbies and I don't get involved in those and she stays out of mine. Both my daughters drive manual by choice and the youngest autocrosses with me when she can. Hasn't caught me yet but if she could do it more regular she probably would beat me in my own car.

    Wow, Thats pretty cool! That hanger is still being used by the coasties. If the door opens we are required to shut down the AutoX while the Search and Rescue plane taxies out onto the runway.
