My dollar is on you.

As for tomarrow, I am debating on going to the autocross at miller park or road america.

BTW- is this one of those events where you can take your car on the track and not need a racing license?

Next weekend I'm going to blackhawk. There I will be able to go well over 60. Possibly 100.

all depends, in a real 1/4 it would be a good race but once his hits about 40 it just takes off where my 101,000 mile ls1 doesnt.....I took it to get gas after the race and it doesnt feel fast but from 40-135 the spedo is really movin :goof ....never got next to him on the track to give it a go tho :crying

I toured with Diana and Mark yesterday and it was by far the fastest/smoothest tour yet.
I was lead around by the MR2 pace car and had a Blue Z06 behind.
We were consisently hitting 110-120 on the straights and just slicing through traffic and were very agressive through the turns.
