I wanted to tell the story about one of the participants at Gateway last weekend, Stacey Herman. Stacey was there competing in her BEAUTIFUL Chevelle. Something happened to her husband's (?) BEAUTIFUL Camaro so he didn't get to run it much, but Stacey soldiered on and competed in every competition anyway even though she had never done anything like any of that before.
I talked with Stacey quite a bit during the weekend, trying to make sure she was having a good time and enjoying the event, she was having no trouble with any of that at all. I think she was a bit nervous about the road course portion but went out anyway and I believe she even pushed her car hard enough to spin it at one point...but she kept on going.
My point for this is...if she can do it in her car with little to no experience at all, there is NO excuse for anyone else on this board for not running these events in their cars.
This is Stacey's car...it was STUNNING!!
This is his car (I never got the chance to meet him so I'm not sure of his name), I think something happened to the trans in it early on...
Both were unbelievable builds and it was great to see them out there getting beat on with the rest of the cars.
