Streets of Willow

Post by BlackWidow »

I am finally taking my car to the track. I will be headed to Willow Springs Raceway (Rosamond Ca.) on Saturday. I am finishing up the adj lower control arms tonight and then the car goes in for an alignment tomorrow. I will post a report and pics.

I ran the same wheels under my very first set of R compounds - Streets of Squamish race, 1996. Man does this bring back a few memories.

Good luck, keep it shiny side up and best of all - have fun.

My first and only drive on a track was the original Willow Springs circuit back in the 60s.

Great setting, I do remember one sort of blind hill/turn that was a thrill every lap.

We used to ride our motorcycles in the mountains out your way, lots of fun. It was much more wide open territory then. (no wind turbines!)
