Had a ball at Thunderhill this weekend

[camcojb]

Spent the last three days with Charley and Mark Stielow driving one of Charleys 65/6 Mustang fastback track cars at Thunderhill for the Nor Cal Shelby Club mini-nats. I did do a school 20-25 years ago but have never driven a full-bodied car on a road course before. What a blast!

I was in the rookie group, and had Mark ride with me for the first section. He's actually a driving instructor for GM, and it shows. Showed me the lines and gave a ton of tips to help me go smoother and faster around the track. Riding shotgun with him in the faster class was a definite "E" ticket ride; he is just so smooth and sooooooooooooooo faaasssstttttt............

I'm going to be looking for a 70-73 Camaro to build a track car out of. I'll definitely be getting ahold of David and Mary Pozzi at that time for some help with suspension selection and set-up tips. Going to try to do this on a budget of sorts. Don't need a world beater, just something that can keep up with Charley's Mustangs...........

I want to thank Charley for the use of his car, and Mark for the help and advice, it was much appreciated.
