Yet another jam-packed day of driving, friends, laughing and luxury began this morning with the local television station interviewing Chris and a number of the drivers. As we left the Desert Marriott, a few of our “less restrained” drivers peeled out as they passed your humble camera crew, leaving not only the skid marks… but some good footage as well.

After the obligatory stop for fuel, the caravan worked it’s way through the hills, through the windmill farm, and over the same railroad tracks about 8 times to the California Speedway in Fontana. Racing began almost immediately, although some drivers actually had their lunch, and some had their cars cleaned.

We had a few mechanical failures (i.e., a broken driveshaft) for the first time in the MC1000’s history, but everyone was safe — the most important thing. We made the curvy drive up to Arrowhead along the Rim of the World highway, and had a fantastic winemaker’s dinner at the Lake Arrowhead Resort and Spa.
