Won’t be goin’ to Texas, but will be at The Altamont in N CA to watch our SIL drive in his 2nd race day. He’s driving a Honda Civic that he’s been working on through the winter.

Last weekend, he managed to get an 8th place finish in his first race and a 2nd place finish in the finale.

Oh, and on a totally different racing note, I spotted a car the other night sporting personalized plates - JR8 SR3.
