Went out to Buttonwillow today to watch some T1 Vette's at the regional race. It was great meeting Roy, Carl, and Chris today, a good group of guys. A couple of pics....

I agree. Halloween weekend was not a good weekend for me and my young ones. At the last race of the season a lot of people are out of money and the season awards are already decided. It leads to smaller turn-outs.

Are you affliliated with Chris Ronson? He is from Hanford, too.

Congrats to Dr. Roy for the wins.

Congrats Dr. Carl for a successful race weekend. The rest of the SoCal T1 racers want to see your e-mail sharing your experience.

Chris, get that car ready to race again. We all want to see you out on the black top in 2010.

Carl, Me (chris), Roy- pre-race on Saturday








I was pushing the car for all it was worth on used R6s to keep up with Roy on his sticker As (with a crazy low cold pressure)





and this was the result


not what I wanted to say the least

Mixed feelings of the weekend with Chris' incident, but had a great time with Carl, Chris (and girlfriend and mom) and Charlie. Chris was very quick with R compound tires and it was going to be a lot of fun on sunday with all of us on fresh A compound tires.

It is really going to be a wild time with all of us out there next year. Our field size could be 6-7 vettes. The T1 vettes are definitely the crowd pleasers at these events.

Great pictures from Charlie and Chris.

Roy
