Newbie - Focaljet

**Hinton Motorsports** · 02-22-2008, 08:06 PM

This is my first post on Focaljet so go easy on me please..

I live in the Northern California area (Sacramento) and was curious to see what the Spec Focus fields (car count) was like in our area. The class sounds awesome but wanted to know if the Norcal area SF is established(is there even a class?) or at least growing. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Todd

Welcome to [FJ]

I live in Manteca and Fresno. Unfortunately there are no NorCal SF competitors, though there is a focus that runs enduros and maybe a few races with SCCA. There will be a few cars in SoCal this year though.

Doesn't Bob Evans race Spec Focus in NorCal?

Last I checked with him he was not....he bought our first spec focus car....

Bob Evans, though has a number registered, has never raced SF to my knowledge. I have seen his car at the 25 hour race and one other enduro.

Sorry guys, didnt have my instant reply checked so I wasnt receiving replys to my email.. Thought you guys where just ignoring me.

Looks like my local area is not so great for the SF class. How is Socal? Sounds like there are a few racers down there? I worked on Mazdas for many years and the thought of having to work on and race a Miata is not very appealing to me (specially a Miata UGH!). Dont get me wrong, the miata is a great little car but in the shop we always teased the techs about having to test drive a girls car.

I think we'll have 3-4 in SoCal by the end of the season.
