So far Brian Hobaugh is first in the auto x and speed stop....

It's a little chilly here but the rains held off and the 12 hour Chump Cars are still out there on the road course dukein' it out....

Greg, how many cars are running in the USCA? Is the weather any better today?

Is Andy's Falcon a runner?

Look like Brian's having a good time!

That's a nice collection of time slips for one day.

The weather is WAY WAY better today -- you could ALMOST take your coat off....

There's maybe 45 cars here. I haven't asked or counted but it's a decent turnout but not what it should be. There's not enough "casual" and first time drivers here and there should be. They're getting so many hours of seat time it's unreal. People everywhere willing to discuss lines and tires and pressures and shocks and watching each other and then giving opinions on what to try etc.

There's been a few spins on this infield track but there's nothing to hit -- so they just put it in gear and take off again.

LOL

People are having a blast

So many runs it's unreal.... everyone is just getting way more driving than
they signed up for. Very well organized --- nice garages to park in... Lots of tools around and lots of knowledge! Perfect environment for a great time.

BRIAN IS TRAILERED -- broke the tranny early today so she's all loaded up and ready to start the journey back to NorCal.

See some of you at GOOD-GUYS PLEASANTON!

Oh ED!!!

I almost forgot....

Since Hobaugh destroyed his transmission --- I rented him your new Corvette. It needed better tires anyway... And since there's no noise restriction we just hacksawed the tailpipes off. They'll weld right back on once I turn it over to you.

Hope you don't mind.

You know the old saying --- it's easier to beg forgiveness than ask for permission.

Greg,
I guess as long as it was Brian all is good. He is probably going to do some paint work anyway when the new body kit comes.

Glad everyone had fun and no one got hurt.

I see the Goodguys/DSE Camaro driven by Ryan Mathews did pretty well all weekend!

See you in a few days Greg.
