September 2020

The deadline is here to sign up and race with the Corvette club at Thunderhill this weekend.  There is no onsite registration, all entrants must be signed up on MSR by October 1st @ 11am.  Don’t expect to just show up and waive sweaty money in someone’s face, it won’t work.  You need to be signed up via MSR and complete the Speedwaiver to race.

More details about the event schedule and track maps will be sent via email from MSR to those who are registered.  Please let me know if you have any questions, or you can also contact the event organizer (Jeff Farber) via MSR.

Get signed up now!

Thanks to all who made it out to our September points race!  It was a tight battle for top time all weekend between Boris Podtetenieff in the Tesla Model 3 Performance and Larry Nelson in the Brunton Stalker – these were the only two racers with times in the 61’s both Saturday and Sunday.  Boris got the win, sweeping the weekend for Top Time, and pulling off the rare double on Sunday, with a PAX win as well.  Saturday’s PAX winner was Blake DeWit in his E Street Miata.

Saturday’s Class winners were Blake for Street, Jerry Shaha for Touring in an STR Miata, Larry for Modified, Boris for Prepared, Keith Smith for CAM, and Garret Murphy was the fastest Novice in a Nissan 300ZX.  Sunday’s Class winners included Blake, Jerry, Larry, and Boris.

We raised $565 so far in donations for this year’s fundraiser, and will continue the campaign through our October race weekend.  You can donate online at msreg.com/ttcfundraiser  without having to register for a race, or you can donate once again when registration for our October weekend opens up in a few weeks.  The drawing for a 2021 season pass for those who donated $25 will be held on Sunday October 18th.

Next up is Thunderhill October 3rd and 4th!  Get all the details and register online https://www.motorsportreg.com/events/nbca-ttc-auto-x-87-88-thunderhill-raceway-park-wscc-north-bay-corvette-531495

We are trying out 3 run groups this time.  Gates open at 7:30am with driver’s meeting for Run Groups 1 & 2 at 9am.  Driver’s meeting for Run Group 3 is at 12:00pm.  We will offer free Fun Runs to our registered racers at the conclusion of Group 3, so if you raced in Group 1 or 2 and can stay with us and help with Group 3, you can get more seat time!  Entry fee is $32 for members and $37 for non-members, and camping is available at the track for this weekend.Run group space is limited, so register today! 

We are setting up at 6:00pm Friday the 11th, and we always appreciate anyone who can make it out to help.
