THINGS THAT GO VROOM

VARA BRITISH EXTRAVAGANZA 2012

May 10, 2012 by Troy Leave a Comment

Wow, what a weekend! Great turn out (150+ entrants), great weather (80F, clear, calm), great cars (Can-Am Lolas and McClarens, 1911 and 1916 Indy cars), great pit parties (bbq, karaoke, big-screen pay-per-view boxing matches), oh, and great racing too. I love this weekend every year as VARA has its Historic run group, and this year the group had quite a few entrants. The HSR-West club also joined VARA for this event, and helped fill out the big bore formula grid. The traditional local British car show took place as well as the all-British car race. My Lil’ Red Wagon ran well, and through attrition and some good luck, we finished up third in small bore.
