    Default Pics from Thunderhill w/ HOD today!

    Ran Thunderhill w/ the Hooked On Driving crew today, what a blast!

    Early morning start on the Bay Bridge from SF...



    Setting up...



    110 Octane at $7.79 per gallon... yikes (I ran 91)



    The new tow hook from Rennline (thankfully didn't need it)...



    Some cool cars showed up (and many that I didn't get pics of, about 100 cars showed up)...













    Some pics of me flogging the Turbo!











    My tips after a few runs, all the carbon deposits burned right off from the heat...

    I thought that D group with Hook on Driving is Race Prep cars only?

    It usually is... but this time HOD gave D group to the PCA Diablo Region (great group of guys, and some awesome drivers). I was in C group originally, but they moved me to D w/ the other P-cars to make room for more in C (whole day was sold out). First time HOD ran D group this way.

    Yeah - was bummed couldn't join you guys Wednesday, too much going on during the week... it made for a fun Saturday tho.

    I was worried about the heat given the inferno you guys ran in, but it was surprisingly mild... I think in the high 80's to low 90's thru the day, not too bad.
