I have travelled I-10 many times from Texas to California in years past. Let us know if there is anyway we can assist, including places to stay in town and safe spots stop over in West Texas.
Thank you Flipside. You most likely will be hearing from either me or heyarms within the upcoming days for any advice/wisdom concerning our trip there. It's nice to know that someone from the Club Lexus family has made this drive (many times!).

While, we may need to stop in West Texas for a quick shut eye, we're really trying to push and drive in one straight trip.

Be prepared on your way back to Texas...We have the highest gas prices in the country.

From San Antonio to LA is 23 hours straight. You will gain 2 hours but the crappiest part of the drive is when you get into Hill Country from S.A. to El Paso. Granted the speed limit is 80 in that area, there ain't jack out there. Just let me know and I can tell you the best cities and exits to stop at.

Depending on what part and where in Texas...some of their gas is as high as ours here in SoCal.

Unfortunately, do to Irwindale Speedway Rules. No vendor is allowed to sell anything on
the property. So sad.

But, we have already over 30 vendor's from which you can interact and get there info
to purchase stuff after the event.

I've also done the drive from LA to Dallas, TX and Houston, TX on the I-10. Always stop at this Quality Inn in Las Cruces, New Mexico not too far outside the Texas border. Its a really clean hotel, with awesome breakfast lol theres some good restaurants around there too. It's about half way (12 hours from LA, 13 from Houston i believe).

Anyways if you think you can make it 12-13 hours straight before taking a break for sleep, let me know...i can get you employee pricing on rooms there if they haven't locked it out for whatever date you'd need it. Family owns a couple hotels under the choice hotels brand. wouldn't mind hooking it up for a fellow CL member

Wow, thanks Killa!! Appreciate another member helping another out! While, like said, we're really trying to push through and do the trip straight through, if we get feeling like we're tired then we'll have to hit you up for this offer.

See you at the pursuit!
