That would have been cool, but unfortunately, only the "National" Events get a ticket to the shoot out and none of the Pleasanton events with an autocross are considered national. Maier is still gunning for a seat even though he got fast times at 2 events this year.

Well technically, all of the parts do bolt on. November is usually nice weather still. March is a crap shoot.

Optima???
In all honesty I don't know what's next. My goal for the car was to win an Good Guys Autocross, so now I guess I am done. We are just now buying a house. Our appraisal was today, so I should know soon if our loan will go through. It has a nice size 2 car garage (that could fit a lift), enough room for side yard access and is in pretty nice shape. I'll be looking for a nice little TIG and a tube bender. Once I have those, all bets are off.
