I played hookey from work. I assume they figure I must have been hung over from a Superbowl party. Alas, I couldn’t have cared less.

That’s Josef Newgarden. He won here last year. This is my kind of sports hero.

I got great parking.

That’s me in the center. 356sc, M5, 911 Turbo reporting for duty.

I shot some good video.

All in all I have to say I had a pretty great day. Best part? This was all free. Sonoma just invited anyone interested and able on a Monday, gratis.

Great place, Sonoma Raceway.

You have a V10 M5? How did I not know about this?

Huh, I live in Larkspur, not far. Plus I could have filled the Z up with high octane no ethanol fuel at Sunoco.

My license literally is J4LOPNK. How you miss these things is beyond me

It was a low, low $9.91 a gallon for the 100 octane today!

If you zoom in I’ve got an Oppo sticker in the window. It’s a checkered flag pattern so it’s hard to tell what you’re looking at but it’s Oppo.

I could have identified the car as belonging to an Oppo, I just never noticed anyone talking about having one on here before. Must have missed it.

It’s a case of if I had seen it I would have had to post here to figure out who it belonged to.

Wow, are all the fuels at that Sunoco ethanol free? I’ve been by there but I never bought fuel. My friend has an S2000CR he takes there so I was helping him a few times. I’m always working when the classic race car thing happens too damn it!

I’m not 100% certain but I believe so.
