And who said no more 69 Camaros allowed at OUSCI?

Now you got ALL YEAR to tear the car apart and make changes for November.

You the man... you the man. Congrats.

Thanks guys! The car felt really quick out on the autocross this weekend. I was trying to close the gap between myself and Brian and Bret at the top of the autocross leader board. I was stunned with how fast they were going. They were about a second quicker.

I was hoping all of my car money would go to the Mustang, but now it looks like the Camaro might be needing a few tweaks. It is pretty close to being dialed in the way I want it, so hopefully tires, maybe a slight wheel rehoop and a bigger rear bar should get the car pretty balanced. Then I just need to work on my driving game a little (okay, maybe a lot).

Thanks again guys! I really should get back to posting Mustang stuff on here, but before I do, I need to give a shout out to Rob MacGregor and Mike Casti. A power steering cooler was on my list of things to do, but I figured I would be fine without one for the weekend. Turns out I was wrong. On the road course I managed blow the cap off the reservoir. Vintage Air Frontrunners use GM based pumps but don't use GM reservoirs. I went to the parts store, and nothing fit. Luckily Mike Casti, who is one of the coolest guys you will ever meet, (not to mention awesome car designer) bailed me out by lending me the cap off his '67 since he was just spectating for the day. I was just about to head back down to Best of Show to grab a cap and drive up at the end of the day, but Rob volunteered to grab one from his shop and bring it back Sunday morning. I probably would have been a walking zombie Sunday if I had had to drive down and back Saturday night.
