Hello, Anyone near the LAX Dollar car rental? I am trying to rent a Charger, but they can't seem to tell me what cars they stock. Thought if anyone knew where to rent a Charger or was close and could take a look that would help. Thanks.
Just dropped my brother of at LAX early this morning. I driver near there regularly. Email me the address of the Lax dollar rental place.
EDIT: is it this location?: 9150 AVIATION BLVD | INGLEWOOD, CA 90301. If so, I'll try to stop by and check.
I have this address, around the corner from your address. Dollar Rent a Car 90045 5630 Arbor Vitae St Los Angeles, CA 90045, United States Thank you very much.

I am on the fence, really want to go but I know my lack of HP is going to be frustrating, in addition Goodguys DelMar starts the next day, and that's the one event my one semi-sponsor needs me at, so I cannot break the car...

This is the second year in a row i can't come because they scheduled the Spring Fling the same week as the Good Guys Nationals at Del Mar.
Is there anyway the Spring Fling planners can avoid this in the future?

I believe it also depends on other holidays, NATS, and if anyone else has reserved Willows or the Park.

I'd like to make it out there some day. It's on my bucket list.

In So Cal there's lot of events to contend with. There's something almost every weekend and easter is the weekend before and our event site has politically leveraged events that take precedence.
I feel for the San Diego people that attend Del Mar. We still get a strong contingent of show cars from San Diego. Just can't win them all.

Isn't is a 360 4bbl car. 300-350HP? Is this your first track day with it? Is it a manual or automatic?
I think having the lower HP motor might actually be better. Lets you concentrate on the handling and hitting your spots. Play with rear sway bar settings or disconnected. And evaluate brakes, seat, etc. Might change/enhance/categorize some of your future buying decisions.
