Unfortunately Thunderhill is just too far for me. I mostly stick with Infineon and Laguna Seca. I might go down to Button Willow one of these days.

Lets put it this way Laguna Seca is 45 minutes from my house, Infineon is 2 hours and T Hill is 5 hours. Its going to take a real special event to get me up to T Hill.
Tow rig gas bill alone for T Hill is over $150 and I have to stay overnight which is another couple hundred. I'd rather pay more and run local as it actually works out to be more cost effective.
Remember I just drove almost 8 hours to a freaking Hillclimb in Big Foot country, but that is a special event!

Sounds like there will be some 914's up there. I know Trekkor is going. Should be fun!

lots of things to sort out, but we got down to a 2:02 flat during a clean run. the (green) car still needs some suspension fine-tuning but the engine is running strong and smooth.
we'll see how the rest of the weekend goes.

well, it's fun working for a winning team ...
tom took 1st in his class at the sunday race!
in fact, not just first, but he *destroyed* the competition.
i don't have the official times yet, but 2nd and 3rd were well over 20 seconds behind!
the heat was brutal. at least for someone like me who grew up in the snow.
no major breakdowns. finally found that sweetspot in the suspension setup ...
