We got lucky this weekend with absolutely great weather! Lows in the 50s, highs around 80, clear skies and no wind, and with more track time than I could handle (never said that before), it was a great way to finish off the season. I had no tire, gas, or strength left at the end and gladly put Miss Lola away for the winter. CSRG ran this 3-day event with two Practices, two … [Read more...] about CSRG SEASON FINALE 2025

F1/Grand Prix cars were the marque of the event this year and with over 75 years worth of cars on display and on track, so the fans got all … [Read more...] about 2025 MONTEREY HISTORICS

The Sports Racer Challenge Series joined SVRA at Portland Int'l Raceway this weekend under sunny skies for its third race of 2025.

VARA Buttonwillow, May 2025
Wow, May weather at Buttownwillow Rcwy that wasn't 100 degrees and windy! Highs were only in the 80s, lucky us.

And my … [Read more...] about VARA Buttonwillow, May 2025
