Welcome to Teamspeed General Racing!!!!

I have attended a number of your west coast events including the Coronado Speed Festival and Wine Country Classic. This year's Wine Country Classic was far and away the best it has ever been. As a Sonoma resident, it makes me proud that our "home track" can hold such an amazing event with an incredibly deep and diverse list of entries. The Bonham & Butterfield's exhibit with the Auto Union, Bentley Speed 8 and Jackie Stewart's Lola was a real treat as well. The race car parade at the Historic Square was also a real highlight.

A number of us TS members are planning on having a meetup at my RV which will be parked trackside on the hill above turn 9/10. Personally, I am looking forward to a great weekend of vintage racing.

Can you give us an idea of when we could expect to see the Porsche 917's running hot laps?
