    Default Cal Club Drivers School

    Sent my wife Rebecca through drivers school this past weekend at Buttonwillow in Mike Manning's Crossle 45. It poured rain on Saturday, but Sunday was lovely. She did great, kept it on track all weekend, only spun twice and didn't stall it either time, and she kept picking up the pace every session, passing the school with flying colors! So proud of her!

    Gonna drive you nuts when she's quicker than you are - just make sure she doesn't get much seat time.

    Default Super School

    Congratulations Rebecca.

    Phil Hill and the Offramp are a challenge in the dry. In the wet, they are really tough.

    Of course, you couldn't have picked a better chassis to run!

    Default Shippert logs first win!

    AND (with Ethan and Becky being much to humble to say it, but I'm not!), She won her very first race! Way to go Becky! Great drive!
