North American Road Racing Association (Narra) came to California again this year.

It was held at a brand new facility, Chuckwalla Valley Raceway.  It is a fun track with some neat

driving features. While it is a much slower track than others we typically run at, it was great for those

who are just starting out.  A handful of guys came out and went through the "Green Group" as first timers

and a whole bunch of us, which have earned our place in the Sidewinders, were also present.

It was perfect track weather, mid 70's and a very light whisper breeze.

A special THANK YOU to Dan and Cathy for doing all the work on this event.  They brought drinks and

snacks for us and gave us a great place to hang out between sessions.

 

First thing Sat morning was Tech Inspection.

Everyone was busy checking the torque on the lug nuts, adding oil

and of course adding the blue tape which helps with aerodynamics.

Our chefs for the day!  BBQ was smelling awesome at 8:00 in the morning.  What time is lunch?

David's blue bra service.

Chris was thinking about it pulling in to get the blue tape too, but decided it might be smarter

to change his brake fluid,
