The only advantage they have over us is weight!
Power wise... we'll kick their *** anytime!
Domestic is the only way to go.
**Make it a domestic only car show.

Re: Calling all WISCONSINITES
For any of you interested in autocrossing your vehicle, the races take place at Miller Park about once a month. They also have a intro class in the beginning of the season so anyone that has no idea what to do could come then and also get some seat time. It's like $25-35 I think to race for the day. Its only on weekends, and it goes from 8am-5pm. I'll post again when it gets closer to the intro class.
I'm the only thirdgen there, and there are only 2 other f-bodies (4th gens). I think it would be pretty neat to all of a sudden have 6 thirdgens.
Just an idea though...

I was a newbie at the beginning of the year and I ended up 7th out of about 70 in my class racing my dads 4-door Dodge Dakota Sport. I didnt use my camaro till the last two races because... well... thats when I bought it.

Re: Calling all WISCONSINITES
More info: http://www.scca-milwaukee.org/Solo/2007/07school.htm
There was an event on Sunday, April 29th this year and I can't imagine it would be much different for 08.
To find out what class your vehicle could be in:
http://www.scca-milwaukee.org/Solo/2...rClass2007.pdf
Basic car classification worksheet:
http://www.scca-milwaukee.org/Solo/c...sification.pdf
Info about the whole workings of the event and more:
http://www.scca-milwaukee.org/Solo/soloinfo.html
Just make sure all the wheels are tight (when you grab and shake them they don't make a ka-lunk noise), the battery is held down tightly, a Snell 95 (DOT is not good enough, it has to be SNELL) or newer helmet, sunblock, money for entrance, a lunch... if you read the above links they should cover everything.
Also, see if your boss wants to have the store sponsor an event. They are always looking for sponsors. Helps keep the program running and admission low.

Re: Calling all WISCONSINITES
I would also love to see that car in action!! Just be light on the throttle coming out of turns or you may end up doing most of the course in reverse.

Re: Calling all WISCONSINITES
sure, it looks as if karrfirebird is setting a show up at his work. Karr you'll have to let me know on a for sure date, as my Camaro is on it's project's "down time" and I may have to kick the project into OD
