We had a good time at Streets. We drove our cars 6.5 hours from Phoenix, stayed overnight in Landcaster, beat on the cars all day, then hitched our tire trailers to the cars and drove home that night.
As is usual no "pro touring cars" were on Streets. Just new stuff. We were the oddity in the Paddock.

Big Willow looks like it would be awesome. There must have been some mustang get together there, this weekend. That is a track we need to do!!

There was a 68 trans am Camaro there making a lot of noise.

The LA/SoCal Shelby club runs Big Willow every Mother's Day weekend. And you guys should run Big Willow sometime. It's fast...scary fast.

From our first time at the track first run group. The other run group videos were junk. Still learning the virb camera.

I am in summer mode.
We ran 12 + HPDE's during the Fall/ winter/ spring. + a good guys autocross. I'm kinda done with autocross.
Car is now down for the heat of the summer. Steering pump and gear are off to LEE Mfg. for a tune up. Belts are out to be rewebbed.

One day you HAVE to run Inde Motorsports Ranch in Wilcox. Stupid fun track!

I am not patient, and I like to go faster than 60 mph.

I dislike beating myself up for muffing up a corner that cost me.5 second. And, yes I will muff up at least 1 time, every run when I autocross.

Road course, I win every time. The only way you loose when running HPDE is if you do something stupid.

Autocross I am a looser, every time.
