Duk,

I've flown in IMAC contest there. Nice facility, not far from THE CASINO! They have a sun problem till about 10:00am as I remember, similar to Buttonwillow, but without the 4,000' runway which allows you to adjust your takeoff and landing position.

Actually the sun is a problem there as it gets later in the day since the field faces west. It's a VERY nice field though.
