It was a great event with perfect (almost – Saturday was a ‘little warm’) weather and lots of good racing. A few unlucky entrants had mechanical issues with their cars but overall everybody had a good time. A big Thank You to our presenting sponsor Titanium Ford , our friends from SOVREN, and to everybody who helped out.

[caption id="attachment_16790" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Our title sponsor, Titanium Ford's Mustang Pace Car leads a 'Faster' Closed Wheel field around Turn 5 on the way to the Start / Finish Line and the green flag! - Brent Martin photo[/caption] Updated: May 29, 2023 We had a big surprise this year. The only time slot available to hold the 2023 BCHMR at the Speed-Fanatics Motorsports Circuit  turned out to be the May 13th-14th weekend. We had to scramble to get everything organized in time. The much earlier date than usual did impact our number of race entries, but (fortunately) the weather cooperated very well and a good time was had by all.   The results for all of the classes and groups are available online at MyLaps (here).   Our dedicated photographer Brent Martin has provided us with some of his photos of the action. Thanks Brent! Check them out below.   Remember, you can see all of Brent's photos of the BCHMR weekend and for many, many other events at Mission Raceway Park, and elsewhere on Brent's website (here).   Update: Our friend Steve Frye attended the BCHMR and also took some great photos. Here is a link to his album with some of the action in the two Closed Wheel groups. Photos of the other groups will be added soon! Thanks Steve!
