Thier car is VERY well sorted out.. mine still needs chassis work and wider front tires.

MY best time in the car was 18.31 ... I need more practice but that was a pretty good time.

I let Bret and Britt fro Air Ride Tech beat my cars and they were knocking down 17.x with the best being a 17.6

I do believe Kyle or Stacy got their Camaro down into the 17.1 range... I think with some changes I could be competative. Man, those people can DRIVE!!

Oh, anyone here good at repairing Carbon Fiber? lol

What are you running up front?

The DSE Camaro was nails. That thing is too cool.
Props also goes out to the CPP '70 Nova.
I was lucky enough to drive both cars and have to say they were both incredible. Each had it's own personality as far as braking, suspension and horsepower, but were a blast to drive.
If you haven't seen the CPP Nova yet, it's on the cover of the NOVA newsstand special that just came out.
It's great to see these show-style cars being driven as hard as they are.

Maybe we can get Steve to post up a photo of it from the autocross this weekend.

I rode shotgun for 4 laps with Kyle. Man he can drive and that car handles awesome. Best part, that is how the car performs 24-7. No suspension adjustments from street to track except maybe tire pressure.

Penny looked great and looked like it was performing well.

The air ride guys can sure drive also. Pretty cool time and crowd digged it.

Larry from PT videoed a few of Kyles runs from inside the car, not sure when that will be posted, FYI.

Let me dig one up.. cool car..

Oh, and Nick here beat me in the Editors Challenge. He did it in DSE's Camaro...

Nice driving Nick!!

[Stuart Adams]

Also, alot of the drivers were giving rides to alot of spectators, which was really cool.

Yeah, I had my car there. I did not run the course tho. I was right in front of the Mothers truck. Next to the guy who had to start and rev his hemi for everybody who walked by then proceed to tell them how much better his car was than theres. Love your car by the way! Did you win anything? Were you guys all running the same tire? It sounded like you were having a hard time keeping from spinning the wheels. It was great to see people who build these car actually use and abuse them!
