That's Cool! Give'em hell. I love that little car. You guys ran the crap out of it (no pun intended) at Gingerman.

After day two at Car Craft RSE, the Schwartz Vega is now leading the autocross by .01, and tied for 1st in the lauch box, I have to hit the dyno by 11am tomorrow, gonna open the bottle and hope for the best.

The primary competition is my friend Randy Johnson of D & Z Customs, who won this event with his Schwartz Chassis equipped 66 Chevelle in 2008.
He's running a 2nd gen Camaro with Heidts stuff and IRS with a supercharged LS, he put down 604 hp to the wheels today and is leading that category.
There's also a real fast blue 69 Chevelle, top 3 cars are are less than 3 tenths of a second apart.
