Edit: I'm signed up for both days. I think I saw a familiar name already on the entry list



Both my cars are signed up for both days. We'll mostly be working with the Mustang set up... and when I feel that's under control -- I'll run the little Lotus a bit on Sunday.... or if the new motor can't make a full weekend (once again),

Looks like Willows is 7 1/2hrs from Portland...if I'm looking at it right. I may blast down Saturday night and check out Sundays action.

I imagine spectating and wandering the pits would be worth the drive, does the event allow passengers?

Yes it does allow passengers. Bring a helmet and driving suit and gloves if you have them. Your outfit has to match what the driver requirements are.

You'll have friends there that will give you a ride.



Come gets your tires and wheels.

Sounds good, it'll make for a fun weekend. Should I bring yellow pants or green pants?

I can't sit on the cooler?

You know how these things work, I figure I'll show up with my gear and if anyone wants 245lbs of ballast I'll be good to go!

You gonna be there?

SEMA is the same time as our anniversary and with kids in school and sports........T-Hill could be a career limiting move.

It's certainly not lack of desire!

If they allow or have a viewing area up on the hill between the new and old tracks a pair of 10x binocs could make it a great viewing spot.

Being new at this I had to go back and read through your mustang thread....you know I don't wanna look silly

"I was looking at the safety requirements for the Northern California Shelby Club Thunderhill event... and noticed that I had to have cotton pants (long) in Yellow, Red and Green.... Also a long sleeve cotton shirt - same colors..... and a 4 point harness in Green...."

Glad the lil scoot worked out. With the AEV jeep, mountain bikes, old skooly truck, Gwen's 33 and skis.... you've got it all covered! Now you just need a house!

I was wondering if that was your reference point.... But you'd missed a color.




I have a HOLE..... But no house yet.
