Optima's Search for the Ultimate Street Car recently ran at the famed Willow Springs International Raceway. You might recognize this track as the one that Shelby developed many of his cars in the 60's at and from Ford vs Ferrari. It's known as the "Fastest Road in the West" and was a nice change of pace from the Auto Club Speedway infield.

Check out my Optima WSIR event report (https://www.autoxandtrack.com/optima-wsir-first-race-since-c19/) and video. My pro touring Camaro (https://www.autoxandtrack.com/1968-camaro-red-apex/) didn't make this easy on me but those of us that went had a blast. My first racing since COVID-19 hit.

Thanks Chad for another great video! I appreciate you sharing the full experience beyond just time on the track. Little gremlins can kill a race day, but you and "Team Archenemies" found ways to overcome them.

Thanks guys! This event was what I needed to reignite the fire for autocross and racing. Can't wait for the next event (possibly the end of the month).
