autocross

How come theres no 3rd gen at a autocross event or at the ones ive gone to. These cars are blast to drive. Im only a 2 sec off of a 94 camaro. I just learn i have a rear sway linkage that is broke. I dont think thats to bad for driving the car for less then a month.
Also i didnt mess with tire pressure. Hopefully with those 3 thing better my time will get better.

yea i started to think about you when i left but i was a little upset.
it looks like im gunna need a new bumper, hood, and fender. i ended up driving it home. they didnt record any of my time which sucks. but the guy in the timing truck said it was fast and around the 40's. I took on the guys running the event out and he was surpries on well my car handle and its all stock but the motor.
If i get it repired by then next one ill be out there.

If any one has any of those parts for sale and cheap. please pm or email me. thanks
