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!

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 ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

tom took 1st in his class at the sunday race! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
in fact, not just first, but he *destroyed* the competition. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
i don't have the official times yet, but 2nd and 3rd were well over 20 seconds behind! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/owned.gif)


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 ...
