For the 'verts...

Last time I ran at the track the rule was 13.49 or faster you need a 4-point. Then you have a while before worrying about a cage..

Over my Xmas break I took the car out and it started to slip a little but didnt think much of it. I parked it and then drove it when I came home for spring break which was last week and it only had 1st and 2nd. So I came home this weekend and Im pulling the POS as we speak so I can get this thing running when I'm out in May.

I'm assuming that the race is a go now with his UPDATE sign?

I can't make it this year though! Maybe next year! Too many projects left unfinished and worried about my tranny with the stall and the amount of miles on my baby!

Let me know if there are any chances to make donations and whatnot, because I'd be willing to do that for the sake of fellow LTx guys

We have another sponsor that stepped up!

Sean Gustin with Pinhead Racing will be sponsoring! He will also be there with his sweet 67 LT1 Camaro again! (This time it is not just a show car). It is show and go!

Thanks Sean!
