VARA Buttonwillow – May, 2025

May 23, 2025 by Troy Leave a Comment

Wow, May weather at Buttownwillow Rcwy and it wasn't 100 degrees and windy! Highs were only in the 80s, lucky us. My Lola was running great, but unfortunately we had a lot of attrition within the Wings & Slicks group this weekend, started with eighteen and finished with ten :-(  I had a couple of good starts against faster cars and had some fun racing within the group. And … [Read more...] about VARA Buttonwillow – May, 2025

April 30, 2025 by Troy Leave a Comment

A wet and cold weekend of racing embraced us at Sonoma Raceway for the SVRA Speedtour. As a part-time SVRA employee, I was there to get all the TransAm and vintage teams squeezed into the paddock (we ran out of room this weekend), do the tech inspections on race cars, help break down the paddock, and get a couple races in when time allowed. The Sports Racer Challenge Series … [Read more...] about SVRA/SRCS Sonoma, APRIL 2025

But after the Friday morning rain gave way to sunny skies, the small cadre of enthusiasts had a … [Read more...] about SVRA/SRCS Buttonwillow, March 2025

CSRG MEMBERS BANQUET ’25

February 6, 2025 by Troy Leave a Comment

CSRG hosted their annual Members Banquet last week at the fabulous Fantasy Junction specialty car showroom. 150 members shared a tasty buffet and local wines with dozens of vintage cars for sale or consignment as the backdrop. Trophies were given, new Board Members were introduced, and lots of stories were shared. And my pocketbook may end up being a bit lighter after viewing … [Read more...] about CSRG MEMBERS BANQUET ’25

VARA-U ’25

February 6, 2025 by Troy Leave a Comment

This year's VARA-U driving school had unusually nice weather, sunny and cool, and no rain or fog. Students within four different groups got their usual dose of classroom instruction, braking and slalom exercises, skidpad laps, and lots of track time. We had safety demonstrations from Fire & Rescue, and plenty of time for ol' fashioned bench racing. I had the opportunity to … [Read more...] about VARA-U ’25
