VARA – Buttonwillow, Sept ’23
It's great that we're finally getting some more vintage S2s coming out to play. Amongst this weekend's Wings & Slicks Group we had a '80's Indy car (alcohol burner), FCs, FSVs, two modern Normas, quite a few WSRs, and a half dozen Sports 2000s. And of course there was the annual brats, beers, and karaoke for the Octoberfest festivities. … [Read more...] about VARA – Buttonwillow, Sept ’23

Track analysis showed that not only would repairs need to be done … [Read more...] about SFR SCCA LAGUNA SECA, JULY 2023, take 1 & 2
SFR SCCA THUNDERHILL, JUNE 2023
Finally an unblemished race weekend with the new race car! The Carbir ran perfect all weekend even with the big heat we had, 85F for Saturday's race and 95F for Sunday's. I think we finally got all the bugs out. We had a combined Group 1 & 2, about 25 cars from the Wings and Slicks classes. I had some good racing with my friend Tao Takaoka in his orange FS, as we swapped … [Read more...] about SFR SCCA THUNDERHILL, JUNE 2023
SVRA COMES TO TOWN
SVRA made their annual Spring swing to Northern/Central California with back-to-back race weekends at Sonoma and Laguna Seca Raceways this month.
