Eric, this a closer place that just opened up. It is called Classic Car Spa and is at the NE corner of Val Vista and Williams Field Rd. They are the only place I take my 8 to. They do a great job and only hand wash the cars as well.

Hopefully after SSX there will be another run to tortilla flats or some place fun i can get in on.

Cool thanks for the info. Might have to give them a try. My only concern is, is that the car is lowered now and I don't think it will fit on the track frame/rollers without hitting the body work. But if these guy's just hand wash the car and there is no tunnel then it would work.
As far as Tortilla Flats there might be an impromptu drive some time this weekend. I'll PM you if it happens. More than likely will be Saturday. Don't know for sure. Would be glad to have you along if we go.

Thai is one of the great things about this place, the cars move on a giant tread (think of tank tracks). It will take anycar of any height.

I just wish to thank the Arizona contingent at SSX for letting an outsider in so smoothly with special thanks to MazdaManiac, ChickenWafer and Easy_1. I met so many of you and all were the most friendly group anyone could ask for. Hoping to see you all again.

Outsider? You are as "inside" as they get.
Just because you are on the other side of the Hoover Dam, you are not off the hook.
I think Arizona should annex Vegas, anyway.

^^ Second that! It was a pleasure meeting you and having you join us at our banquet table. We had the distinct pleasure of being at the same table as MM, Ray, Easy E1 and Phil.

Hell I'll go for it, but can we keep the same rules - I could not take those state taxes and Nancy would go into withdrawal if she did not have video poker. There must be something in the water in AZ that causes you all to be cool.

On a sad note, one of our own had their 8 stolen last night.
If you happen to see it on the road, please inform the authorities.

How receptive would the state constabulary of Arizona be to a closed course run down one of your twisty mountain roads? I vaguely remember coming down off a mountain from a Apache Reservation to the low lands on a very fun road. Of course this was many years ago but I still think about that road and wishful thinking makes me wonder. I know that the Nevada HP will do it for a licensed club if road liability insurance is posted and you set a few rules but I do not know the mind set of the AZ troopers. I know you have the AZ Mazda Club as a reconized car club and it just got me thinking.......Me thinking is a dangerous thing. I know some will scoff at the idea and others will say "no way will they let us" but it could be fun.

Good question. I don't know who to approach about that. State Police?

There was talk that State Police were wanting to take over highway patrolling from the reservation police. I don't know if that happened in AZ. (I think the road I'm thinking of was part of the reservation) If it did then hit up the politicians first as they will sway with the wind and have influence with the state troopers. You need to approach them like a multi member club for obvious reasons. Many years ago it worked in Cali. If the Indians still control the highway then it takes a little different approach but doable. Use all the arguments including the tourist thing
