Its amazing what a little seat time does for your standings isn't it? I still say(at least for me)the best improvements we can make are not car related, but driver related. I do love that car, it amazes me what these cars can do with a little suspension, and power improvements. It will stink when your wife is handing you your a$$ on a silver platter with that Corvette next year though. LOL

Very true. I felt more confident in how the car reacted the more I drove it.
I fully intend on going to get some official driving instruction next year. It's always funny to hear the SCCA guys chatting amongst themselves on how fast our "old" cars are
You may be right about the wife...maybe I should talk her into a bone stock setup on the Vette instead

Same here Dan, really enjoyed the Nova and yes, totally different. Actually that was the first car other than one of mine, that I've autocrossed. Drove Tom's on the big track in Pittsburgh, but not thru the cones.
Yeah, I'm looking forward to 2014 already too

Thanks Donnie, that's exactly what I was referring to. I met Mike Johnson at RTTH's this year and we talked about his classes. I also talked to Rich about it two weekends ago at Day at the Strip, and he said the same thing, well worth it.
Mike said they may be back at the Pontiac Silverdome parking lot this year, hopefully they will as it's only 45 mins for me.
I appreciate the heads up, IL would work if they don't come to MI.

Just sat here and combed through this thread and I love the execution of the chevelle and it definitely gives me motivation for my 67 Lark! You sir have built a VERY nice "G-Velle". Congrats!!!
