Default hill climb testerday

yesterday's hill climb in Murrietta, CA was great! about 30 cars ran, weather cool but comfortable. cars included a stock model T running the hill with an e.t. of 30 seconds to roadsters running in the very low 8 seconds. had to leave early so not sure of the fastest car but Olive Moore was leading at that time.

Thanks for sharing. Would have loved to go (as a spectator) but it was my Dad's 95th Birthday. Priorities...

My fastest time was 9.083. Not too bad for a flathead.
