How come their were only 7 entries for the Z2Z competition? No offense but that dosent seem like a serious competition to me.
I agree, unless you compare cost, I can build a customer Ultima GTR for less than a Crate Camaro.
As far as turnout, I couldn't understand the lack of cars either. The Z2Z is held Friday, most don't show up til Saturday. It was cold and snow was in the forecast. There were 39-40mph cross winds.
There were tons more cars in the High Noon Shootout on Sat, same exact deal except you don't need to stomp on the brakes, maybe everyones afraid of stomping on the brakes at near 200?
