Thanks so much for your reply--I was waiting to see how it was accepted.
We're really working quite hard on this, and reporters are so pushy! They
read into anything said and then only hear what they want to hear... Rest
assured, there is no one who would more appreciate permanent bathroom
facilities other than I! What with having to take off radios, phones, packs,
etc. in a port-a-john and risk dropping everything into the hole!
Please feel free to forward your suggestions, comments, other concerns to us.
I wish I could say "Looking forward to seeing you at Coronado", but it doesn't
sound like that event will take place this year. I spoke with Steve the other
day, and while the military is still on this level of alert, nothing will be
opened up...
Thank you,
Kathy

Hi Kathy;
You bring out some facts I wasn't aware of and I appreciate your candor.
I too 'am a member of more than a few volunteer organizations, so I
appreciate the number of hours you no doubt offer your organization. Been
there, Done that, Do that..
"Your fees as an entrant to this event have not changed in almost twenty
years." Hmm, guess I'll have to get a refund from Steve on that. I was at the
first, all in between with exception of one, and there certainly have been
increases in the entrant fees, substantially. Actually I belong to a number of
other vintage racing associations, and their fees are actually lower. (CSRG,
SOVREN.) However, there certainly is a wonderful ambiance to drive Laguna,
which I always enjoy.
The lack of sanitary facilities at Laguna Seca has been a problem since day
one, and never properly addressed. It's a continuing source of irritation to
all who use the track, and I'm not speaking for myself on that issue. Perhaps
they could have spent a few of the $10M dollars you've given to the local
charities to have minimal facilities. On the good side, it does sound as if
that's (finally) going to be addressed.
"But none of this will be done at the expense of our promoters or their
participants"
OK, we'll see how that plays out.
I've forwarded your letter to a few friends, (all two of them), so your
points are being brought forward and people may make their own decisions. As
you noted, it's too bad that the article in Autoweek wasn't properly addressed
to the facts.
Best regards; Dean Watts
PS: Let's see, where is that pet ostrich of mine?
