NASA SO CAL Roll Call - AUTO CLUB season opener
Well well,about 2 weeks away untill another So Cal NASA HPD Honda Challenge season begins.I am looking forward to getting back on the track and shaking the rust off. I will be running H1 this season with the same old coupe and my trusty K20 setup. I am looking forward to seeing all my friends again and what changes have everyone done to their cars...even if it is nothing but a wash.
Who's gonna be there?

Re: NASA SO CAL Roll Call - AUTO CLUB season opener
What a fun weekend and a great HPD Honda Challenge So. Cal season opener!!
Helped a few friends keep their cars running,and had a good time BBQ'ing and Rookie Hazing at night.There was even an Erik Olson and Paul(dirty19)sighting on Saturday,a Kiwi sighting Sunday,and it was cool to have nor-cal visitor/H2 Champ Jon Meris and his crew run with us..good times.
Edo got pole in H2 Sunday but forgot you need a working alternator to finish! Jeremy Dominated the weekend's huge H2 field. I pulled wins with my newly made-over coupe in H1 both days and even set a track record during my win Sunday,but was DQ'd right after for being a bit under weight after using more gas than I anticitpated as the pace was very fast! Thanks to Jeremy for some encouragement to go faster,and Sam Rothschild for some driving tips that helped me blister the track,and thanks for the new dampers Benny!

Re: NASA SO CAL Roll Call - AUTO CLUB season opener
It was great seeing everyone on Sat. Sorry I couldn't stay to watch the race, I was really looking forward to seeing a great battle. Good luck this season to all the west coast guys and we hope to see some of you at National this year.
Justin, it was nice meeting you finally.
Edo, I tried to track you down but you seemed to be pretty busy. It was nice to meet your brother and talk with him.

My pleasure trevek, it's what is all about. You will find out that anybody you ask they will be more than happy to help with any problems. It is a pleasure to belong to such a bunch of nice guys.
Racing was really clean, everybody had a good time, unfortunately some broke down, (me included) but at the end it was all good and fun.
It would be nice to see more guys from Nor cal around here and maybe we can pay the favor and go up there from time to time.
Congrats Justin that was some really nice work. And to all the guys that participated cheers and lets do it again. See you at Buttomwillow

Good seeing you saturday Justin! Been a while and yes...the bug bit hard! I am in the process of looking for a good low budget shell to start with! So hopefully next year if I can finish by then, I will be out there with you guys!

Re: NASA SO CAL Roll Call - AUTO CLUB season opener
What a fantastic weekend for Croiset Racing to start off the season. We picked up 4 of the 6 podium spots for the weekend including both wins. The racing was super close and tons of fun all weekend long.
On a personal note, I gotta say a big thank you to my sponsors and my crew!
Crew: Shane Croiset, Robert Bawdon, Frankie Ho, Felix Jimenez, and Jorge Garcia.
My crew was awesome this weekend keeping everything working perfectly! Felix, Jorge, and Frankie are new to the team this season, but they did an awesome job for their first weekend and had a great time doing it. I'm really looking forward to working with them more during this season. Thanks again guys!
Here is the sun video from the event!

The videos look awesome. Such close racing. Hopefully my own car gets done this month. Randy and I are talking about coming down for a race or two this season. We'll see how it plays out.
