It was just another typical California weekend here with perfect racing/car show temps in the 90’s to 100’s. Now some might say that’s too hot but car guys know this weather causes the grease monkeyettes to take the top off so to speak.
We spent the weekend visiting our son Will, who besides his racing he is now helping run Thunderhill Raceway in Willows California and I spent most of the weekend racing Lucky (my GT350R) on the Thunderhill Raceway’s newly paved track and boy is it ever fast. Both Will and one of his buddies set a new lap record in the new BMW E30 Series which is quickly becoming very popular.
On our way home my wife and I stopped in at the Pleasanton Car Show and swap meet to hang out for a while and buy some vintage oil company signs for one of my office lobbies. Naturally while were there we checked in with the Hemmings booth where we met and visited with Terry Thompson and Carson Cameron both who were busy doing what they do so well… talking cars. I wanted a photo of them for the Hemmings blog but that’s easier said than done. Since the Hemmings booth is always so packed you have no idea how long it took for us to get a photo when there was no body standing in front of Terry, Carson and myself. That’s not exactly a bad problem to have and it just proves how popular Hemmings is here in the left coast.
See? Celebrities and rock stars, all of ‘em. Thanks, Gary, for waiting until the rare moment when the guys aren’t swamped with customers.
