Goodguys Columbus autocross
Well last year when I found out anyone can run on Sunday at Goodguys, I knew right away I was going to get my car up there. So trailered the car up from Cincy OH, stayed with the in-laws and got some racing done.
It was a good time running against some of the "bigger guys" and somewhat holding my own. I didn't know what to expect except a tight course but it was a blast.
Saturday a friend of mine in his C2 ras running the sponsored event:
Never thought I would being MY car into the show grounds:
7am setup with cars starting to show up. UMI had 2 cars there that was good to compete against.
Staging ready to rock and roll
Action shots throughout the day:

Good to surround yourself with friendly people that let me borrow jumper cables (mine were in the truck a mile away (DOH!) and my friend Marshall lending me some JUICE. Manual fans left on too long kills batteries LOL
I was happy with the results. No major car issues and I held my own in a LT1 with only suspension goodies and daily driven Nitto NT555's. I had some Sport Cups I could have ran, but that would have put me out of the running for any awards. I really would have liked to be on some Rivals (like everyone else) to see how far up I could climb in the standings. 16th of 34
Fun weekend, packed up and headed home. Always great racing with friendly people and when nothing breaks on you!
