Do we have any members here from Southern Oregon that are members of the Siskiyou sports car club?
Sure would like to figure out how register for the Hill Climb on June 11th. Thanks. |

Dave has a new car that he built over the winter, which winter I'm not sure. But it's a Lotus 7 clone, but wider and slightly longer. Looks from the back more like an opened wheel Sprint Car. Opened wheeled.
The frame is pretty beefy so the overall weight is around 1900lbs. He is running a LS something with somewhere north of 450hp. He got the plans for the lotus frame off the web somewhere. Very impressive car and crazy fast with handling. Not sure whether Dave is comfortable in the car yet... Sonny has built a new car, with lots of stuff from his old car. It's a Cobra clone that weighs in about 2,300lbs. The motor is a 427 small block putting out some serious big hp. Both Dave and Sonny had Randy from Grants Pass do substantial aluminum components (flares / front ends / panels), so both cars are pretty trick. FYI Sonny got in front of Bill Cooper on Sunday by a bit more than a second. Cooper said he didn't have any more left on the hill so Sonny got the King of the Hill award. This was a big event for Sonny as Copper has got him on a bunch of hills. The big fast boys are in a class all by themselves. They could take a nap after finishing before the rest of us got to the top. Nothing like experience and a really fast fast car. |

Sonny was trying to get me to buy his Vette at Hoopa. I love Sonny's driving style he is a maniac! He was the guy complaining about Ashland and stupid slaloms! What kind of times did they set? |
