Not an FBody/ Vette/Pavement or even LS powered but still the most fun I've ever had racing. Me and my Son raced them for a short time.

Congrats to @landstuhltaylor for winning his class at SCCA Nationals. I just saw it in the latest magazine.

Quick question here: I see you won in ESP. How different is your car in ESP trim than when you run CAMC? Is it just the tires?

I had to add a bunch of ballast to run the CAM Challenge. Filled the wiper reservoir, put the stock passenger seat back in, filled the fuel tank all the way, and bolted a C5 brake rotor into the trunk. Made weight by 7 lbs without the brake rotor so that part was just to cover for fuel burn and scale discrepancies.

Other than that I just ran some $100 take-off 315 Rivals. Would be curious to see what it would have done with 335 Rivals and more heat. Even still, coned away 2nd place in CAM after the finish. That is also the only time I have ever run the car on street tires. Not too bad a result for having to figure it out during competition runs.

Normally in ESP trim I just wouldn't have that extra weight and would run 335 Hoosiers. I never drained the fuel after running CAM so I was likely about 3220lbs for Nationals instead of my normal 3150.

Here are the runs. Realistically I should have had no shot at all on the East course. If you look at index on that side it was heavily, heavily biased towards narrow/nimble cars.

Now that the car seems well sorted, all you need is to give some attention to the aesthetics department and you will be lookin good!

Great vids - one of the course workers obviously underestimated how fast you were on that last run

Not many pics of my pile, but I do beat it like it owes me money. Got some fresh red fenders and a bumper skin to install among other reliability/durability mods to do this winter.

First time at a 1/4 mile years ago.

I had probably a half a car on the civic before the tree. I may have even been a whole car ahead but i cant remember, and i havent seen the guy who took the videos and pics of that day in years.

Same day i ran against the zl1 too. I think it was when they first came out.

Ill update if i can find any autox pics

My friend took this shot of me. Very tight and slightly off camber turn. Running the new Falken rt660's. Theres a teensy bit of air under the inside rear tire. 5th gens are heavy!
