Yesterday, Sunday, February 19, we hosted our second NSX Cars & Coffee for the Norcal NSX Owners group. Was a great turnout!
Thunderhill East with OnGrid
This past Saturday, February 4, we went to OnGrid's Season Opener event at Thunderhill Raceway. The week before is always hectic at the shop.
Anti-Football Drive w/GGLC + Cobra Experience
This past Saturday, we attended Golden Gate Lotus Club's Annual Anti-Football Drive for the second time and had a great time. We all met at Peet's in Castro Valley. The parking lot was packed and the turnout was great!
Trackspec's Memorable Moments of 2016
NASA 25 Hours of Thunderhill
What a weekend!!! We were invited to pit crew for Team Lotus Cup USA - PB Racing at NASA 25 Hours of Thunderhill. Before I write about our experience, here are some facts about the race: Race was 11am Saturday, November 3 until 12pm Sunday, November 4. 66 Entries. We had 1 car out there: Lotus Elise Cup PB-R.
Trackspec's 2-Year Anniversary Party
On Sunday, November 20, 2016, we hosted our 2nd Year Anniversary Party. Despite the rain, it was an amazing turnout (surprisingly!). If you've been with us before Trackspec even started, you knew our official start date was not even close to November 20. I know the came a little late this year, thus the rain. BUT WOW, that didn't stop most of you and we were quite honored to have you all here.
SEMA 2016
As always, SEMA did not disappoint this year. Like last year, we closed the shop two weekdays just to go. We also got a lot of questions about SEMA and I also saw a post on Facebook that said something like "Am I the only car enthusiast who doesn't care about SEMA?" So I realize that not everyone knows what SEMA is about (because if you have the slightest interest in cars, you should want to go). So before I get into the specifics of our trip, I thought I'd write a little more about the convention. But in summary, SEMA is so much fun because: 1) You get to be in Vegas during the week, 2) You get to talk and listen to industry leaders, vendors, celebrities 3) You get to grab or win free crap or buy cool tools with SEMA discounts, 4) You get to see beautiful and not-so-beautiful cars, and 5) Vegas buffets.
All-Day Drive: 3 Lotus, 1 VW
Thunderhill West with OnGrid
We had an amazing time out at OnGrid's trackday at Thunderhill West. It was pretty hot, around the 90s, but it was also really windy so that helped. Everyone did really well and beat their personal records.

Rainy Day at Thunderhill West with OnGrid
This past Saturday, on May 7, OnGrid through yet another fun and smooth event at Thunderhill West. Three factors made this day incredibly fun: 1) It was almost everyone's first time at this section of Thunderhill, 2) the track is short and windy, and 3) it was slippery due to on and off rain.
