Well, THIS was certainly an EVENTFUL SpeedSF Challenge - a truncated session, crazy field expeditions, and major talking points to close out 2019’s SpeedSF Challenge at Thunderhill on the Bypass configuration. If it wasn’t recorded on video, did it really happen? 27 fast, faster, and fastest bois participated as evidenced by broken lap records across 3 classes. If you were there, you knew what went down. It wouldn’t have been an end-of-year Challenge session without the craziness for sure.

We start off Day 1 of the Thunderhill SpeedSF Challenge doubleheader featuring the Cyclone configuration and broken Challenge lap records across four classes! It’s been quite a while since we’ve run the Cyclone config, but it was a great way to start the weekend! With 19 drivers participating for the final Challenge weekend of the year, is there really a better sendoff?

Fast boi club right here. Featuring a race car, a non-production-based race car, and then another race car, it was down to pure power and finesse, squeezing everything out of each drivers’ respective chassis. 3rd place finisher who ALMOST got into 2nd place, David Colbert, piloted his 1980 Lola T540 D Sports Racer around Sonoma Raceway and put down a 1:43.123 lap time, while Mark Hamilton Peters whose 1:43.104 lap time answer in the GT4 Mustang earned him 2nd place on the podium. In 1st place was the winner by a landslide and record-breaker for the SpeedSF Class X lap record at Sonoma Raceway - Ben Sloss. His Ferrari 488 GT3 lit up the track with his blistering 1:35.044 lap time. Dashing!
