Chad, just got my copy in the mail and was gonna bump this thread but you beat me to it!

Car looks great. Glad it's running like a champ these days.

We're going to SOW's on the 8th with Speed Ventures if you're looking for a "fix."

It has been great getting back on the track!! I've had a lot of fun the past few months beating on the car and attending some autocross and track day events! Sadly in the beginning of 2015 I've already had conflicts on a number of events pop up. Including the 8th :( I'd love to hit another track day with Hollywood one of these days so let me know if you attend any more. I guess the upgrades are done on your Camaro?

Thanks Ron. It would of been great to see you there. Now that you are building a "track" car are you taking the dead pool car to any track days?

Thanks Dave! So far so good. I've even got a new master cylinder and proportioning valve at home to convert away from power to manual brakes to help with some of the gremlins uncovered at the handling challenge.

I like that move!

Done? Surely you jest.....;-)

Done enough for shakedown.

Got to beat on the car some more in the past two weeks.

Two weekends ago I ran at the Pamona Hotchkis autocross. Saturday was pretty exciting as I placed 2nd in the classic muscle class, Sunday I ended up 5th I think.

Today was even more exciting as I placed first in the classic muscle class. It helped that Jake R. wasn't in the classic muscle class and getting some great driving tips from Matt A.

Nice job today and congrats on a well earned win! All that seat time really looks to be paying off :thumbsup:
