Default Test day at the track. It's how we learn around here, video inside.


Usually I'd take my 4th gen Camaro for this stuff since I have a roll bar, different brakes, and it's what I use for muscle car events. But it had some issue I needed to get fixed before I took it, so I decided to run some old Hoosier's and have a good time.

My best two laps (only two without traffic). It's my SSR autocross car, running just as I autocross it but for 2 psi less cold air pressure. So when you hear how an autocross setup doesn't work on a track or the street, folks be lyin'. Or just ignorant. Bad ones don't, my stuff does.

New pavement, the south part of the track was only done early this week. My first session was not confidence inspiring to say the least. This was my 3rd session and I think the 7th total since the paving it was getting better quickly.

Usually I'd take my 98 Camaro SS for this stuff since I have a roll bar, different brakes, and it's what I use for muscle car events. But it had some issue I needed to get fixed before I took it, getting ready for MotorState Challenge, the CAM East Event in Peru IN and Optima NJ. So, I decided to run some old Hoosier's on the Z06 and have a good time.
