Part III - Fun in the hills!

Awesome track marshals keeping things orderly :thumbup:
Image

Digging this livery!
Image

oops
Image

Wes had minor oil leak but was back out in no time.
Image

Raymond's CTR looking good out there :thumbup:
Image

But he kept getting held up by the NSXs :P
Image

Skittles!
Image

Image

More doors! :thumbup:
Image

Image

Taking a break from the track to reenergize & mingle!
Image

Image

Image

This is so bad arse! 8-)
Image

Team Honda Research doing their thang
Image

Near the end of the day many cars were going off at Turn3
Image

Image

Image

Workers went to check but there was nothing. My guess is that tires were getting greasy from running in the heat all day + tired drivers + driver's starting to push it just a tad more as they became familiar with the layout = OFFs
Image

Chase checking his nSX
Image

Image

Time to hit the track again!
Image

Image

Image

Image

That darn Turn3 again!

The kid in glasses and blue and white Sparco suit is the driver of the TL. He told me he made it out from Idaho to Thunderhill in 8 hours!

Thanks for your patience, lets get back to storytime!

Part V
Day 2 Sept. 27, 2018

Start to another literally hot day!
Image

Guys from Team Honda Research were helpful yesterday in trying to diagnose and fix Matt's ITR. Looks like part of the cause was this.
Image

Jay's in the house!
Image

Image

Not off to a good start coming out of 11
Image

David and Goliath
Image

Mark has a twinkle in his eye **
Image

Was fun watching these two go at it :thumbup:
Image

Former ITR owner Jackson rep'n his TSX
Image

Wes' car all fixed!
Image

EG!
Image

I think this was a casualty from the heat. Both days were 100+F
Image

Cool wheel color!
Image

Marcus' hardtop protecting him from the harsh sun
Image

CWs

Image

I think this was the only black one this year?
