Alright, time for some more scenes from the 2010 season opener of the Redline Time Attack series at Buttonwillow Raceway. As you saw in the last post, while some of the familiar faces of the scene were missing, the teams that did come out were as focused as ever. Based out of St. Lous, MO James Elterman and the Takata Impreza haven't been seen much

This past weekend was quite the busy one for me. On Saturday I headed to the Formula Drift Tech Day at UTI in Rancho Cucamonga, and yesterday I drove up to Buttonwillow Raceway to check out the opening round of the 2010 Redline Time Attack season. While the driver turnout at Buttonwillow could have been better, more than one record-setting lap would

The 2009 American time attack season is now behind us. Following the Super Lap Battle at Buttonwillow on Wednesday, the Redline Time Attack series wrapped up their season at California Speedway over the weekend. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get out to Fontana for myself, as I was up in the Bay Area for the Hellaflush meet. You can expect some

Hey, I thought November was supposed to be the off-season for car events? With SEMA, the VIP Festival, and Wednesday's Super Lap Battle, it's been a busy week of Speedhunting for me - and it's not over yet. Later this afternoon I'll be hitting the road towards NorCal for tomorrow's Hella Flush meet in Milpitas. Before I leave, I

Every November for the past several years, America's (and the world's) fastest tuner cars have gathered at Buttonwillow Raceway for a one-day battle in the dusty and fragrant Central Valley of California. Upon arriving at the track, I noticed the paddock appeared a little emptier than past years. Nonetheless, all the top players in the game

For those of you who have been waiting to see more "functional" machines on Speedhunters this month, don't worry. Tomorrow is the annual Super Lap Finals at Butonwillow Raceway, and I'll be heading out bright and early to bring you guys the action. Even better, if you live in California and can find an excuse to get out of work or

Yesterday I highlighted some of the class winners from the Redline Time Attack event held at Buttonwillow Raceway last weekend, and now I'll wrap up my event coverage with some more odds and ends from the kick off of the 2009 US time attack season. With over 100 entries spread among the different classes, there were a lot of cars out there that

Yesterday you saw a few shots from last weekend's Redline Time Attack season opener at Buttonwillow Raceway, but I'm sure a lot of you were curious about the results from the first big US time attack competition of 2009. Shall we have a look? Before we get started, a quick refresher of the classes is in order. Like most time attack series around

I've been back home in the USA for a few weeks now, and I guess you could say that I'm over what they call "reverse culture shock". With the 2009 racing season now in full swing, it was time to head out to Buttonwillow Raceway this weekend to have a look at the opening round of the 2009 Redline Time Attack series. Before leaving for

The Buttonwillow time attack gathering is probably my favorite tuner car event the United States. In fact this week's 2008 edition of the event will be the first time I have missed it in the past three years. Then again the "original" time attack course at Tsukuba is only 30 minutes away from me right now so I suppose I can't complain
