Anyone going to the 25 hours at Thunderhill

Jim · 29th November 2011, 07:14 PM

If the stars align, I hope to get to the Hill on Saturday for a bit. I want to catch some racing but hope to catch some Ca SL-C owners as well to pick their brains and see their cars..... No, I won't be that guy, bugging the crap out of a race team with stupid questions (I always hate that when I'm race focused) But would love to see some street SL-C's that make the trip

. Anyone planning on going?

I am, and I think Rob is going with me. Last year we were there at the start,11am, and stayed until we got tired at about 9:30 pm. The weather will be a factor.

Neither of use have a car (complete) to bring yet. But you are welcome to drop by and see mine anytime we can work it out.

Hi Jim
As far as I know there are no street ready SLCs in the Western States. So I'd say you probably will not see one at the track. SLC owners? Now that is a different story, you should see at least two if I have my math correct.

(race ready - there is at least one and it is entered in the event)

Wish I could make it. Be sure to take plenty of pics again.

Weather is a factor for me too.... Sounds like if I get my act together I could be the first street SL-C in Cali, Ha ha ha.. To bad I don't plan to get an SL-C in my garage until July-Aug and on the road by June 2013.
If wishes were horses, dreamers would ride.....
Hope to cath up with you guys at the hill. Shoot me a PM sometime this week and swap cell#'s so we can hook up.

There's a chance that I can make it. I'd love to come up again and see you Cali guys again. I had a great time last year and I really want to go again.

Edit: Weather looks like it will be great this weekend!

I may make it up there again. I won't know until the morning of though. Howard's wife asked me to go to keep an eye on him to make sure he doesn't eat anymore pie up there this year

Justin · 1st December 2011, 07:19 PM

Not gonna make it...

Ted - LS MAN · 1st December 2011, 08:35 PM

I will be there on Fri. & Sat. helping the GTM boys a little.
Will come by the 18 car & say hello.

Well, my wife and kids have voted to get a Christmas tree and decorate the house Sat, so if I make it, it will be late Sat afternoon. Someone please shoot and post some pictures.

Mesa · 2nd December 2011, 01:32 PM

Well whoever makes it, we will be hangers-on at the number 18 pits. Come by and make yourself known.

Rob

How's your progress coming Artgirl? Any closer to getting an SL-C on the street? I'm hoping to place my order by June so I have a long way to catch up....
