the usual tourist stuff like seaworld and the san diego zoo etc..
go to the gas lamp district in downtown san diego, theres lots of restaurants, bars, clubs, louges there. I like "w" hotel... pretty cool lounge
dont know any race shops down there but if you head up to socal (orange county) theres alot of shops here to check out. im sure someone with post up the shops

Blitzsti is right.....there is no real race shops here in San Diego that is worth going to at the moment. I believe I-Speed do have a AWD Dyno, they are located in Vista, CA (not that far out of San Diego). As for a race track there no 1/4 or a road coarse. There is a 1/8th track at Barona and at the Qualcomm statium on Friday (it doesn't happen all the time). You can try Wine tasting up in Temcula (about 45 mins north of San Diego).

as for restaurants, if youre in orange county then id recommend 'orange hill', you sit on top of a hill overlooking all of orange county. after dinner i'd go to the outside fireplace and enjoy the champagne and strawberries. place is awesome

As for tracks.. There is California Speedway and Buttonwillow (2hrs north of Torrance) if i'm not mistaken.. However since you guys are going to be in SD, that would be a bit of a drive...
