Default some autox pics from this past weekend! (56k=no)

from MSCC here in central florida, a buddy of mine snapped these for me! I've got strano springs, strano 35mm front sway bar, koni 4/3 SA shocks, spohn SFCs, and LG double adjustable panhard. I've got LG single adjustable lcas but I had a fitment problem with the hime joint ends when trying to install.

Ahh... Martin Sports Car Club, Police training ground in Taveres, right? Been there, taught an Evo school there and ran a event in my Camaro a few years back.

They have their own classing, I never actually understood it. Seems most ESP/SM kind of setup Camaro's fall into GTP.

yes i am a part of the martin mafia lol. Sam you were an instructor of mine at an evo school out in Palm Bay like 5-6 years ago, had no clue who you were at the time though! Yea that is out in Tavares. I really don't understand their classing either but it works for them. GTP is mainly F-bodies and mustangs, g35s, and bmw 540s. It handles way better than before, a lot smoother, but I was told by a buddy that I was ***** footing it too much and not beating the crap out of it like I usually do and thats why it was "smoother."

I don't understand their classing either because they'll let a SS camaro run with race tires and mild suspension mods in a prepared class...

Oh yea sam...arguing with a friend the other day about having the t-tops off while autoxing, does it make a difference or is it BS? Main reason I do it is that my huge head=huge helmet=pushed up against the t-top.

Any increase in flex you *might* get (and I doubt it's any) would be countered by the fact you lower the CG by taking weight off the highest part of the car.....
