Did someone armor all the seats? Hmmm.....foul play perhaps?

I do have a bad habit of one hand driving sometimes. It makes it easier for me to "feel" the tires. When the belts came loose I was trying to sort out if the latch opened or something else. I usually tighten the belts as I drive anyway. So it did rattle me a little with no belts at all. From a safety point of view I would of stopped if it wasn't the only shot we had at it.

I had a good time at the event and I was fun to see old friends and make some new ones.

It was a good time to see people driving the cars hard in the events.

I was very impressed with Charley's times in the 1:52. His race craft is becoming very good. It must be all the practice autocrossing in the Wal-Mart parking lot... lol

If all goes well I'll be back next year in my "new" Camaro as the owner / builder / driver. If I get an invite.

Nice video and some nice runs. A couple of time while I was watching I caught myself leaning into the corners. lol

I didn't realize you had no belts. Only makes since with a race belt set up. I guess we can call it living on the edge.

Todd, if you dont have race belts, get them!!! It will improve your times, guaranteed, trust me.
