The 2015 season Finally, or is that Finale... We made our third trip to Thunderhill Raceway last week to wrap up the 2015 SCCA season. Weather was great, turnout was good, and we had some excellent racing in Group 4. I'm happy to say I made some good friends in my first full season with this club, and look forward to racing with them for years to come. And I must admit I was … [Read more...] about SFR SCCA THUNDERHILL, TAKE 3
Race Weekends
SHOOTOUT AT THE RANCH ’15
Last weekend VARA held its October 2015 race at the Spring Mountain Motorsports Resort (formerly Ranch) in Pahrump, NV, home track to the Ron Fellows Chevrolet driving school.
