I really want to start autoxing again, and our season starts in feb here. I have a 94 z28 that is serving as Daily driver duty right now, and I also want to race it. It will be my dedicated race car next year, when I buy a new Daily Driver.
Since I want to race my daily driver this season, what are some common parts to fail on the autox course? Should I keep some stock replacement parts handy? What is a "weak spot" on the fbod? I'm gonna try and get a 2010 SS camaro as a DD next winter. Then I'll get some DOT-R tires for my 94 camaro and gut it. |

Great replys. Thanks.
I have a few minor mods, and I'd like to run in ESP class I believe. I'll be on street tires for the first season. My PS pump is only a few months old. It's an Oreilly replacement part. I have 25% underdrive pulleys to try and slow it down and save it. I was told the alternator was new when I bought the car. It prolly has 25,000ish miles on it. I have no idea how old the clutch is. I will be prepared to replace it though. I have the stock clutch style rear end with 3.23's. If it goes poop, I'd like to replace it with a zexel torsen HD unit from SLP. Anyone like those, or dislike them? I had one on another camaro of mine and it seemed to work fine. It also didnt' have clutches to wear out. My torque arm and tranny mount are brand new. They might not be ESP compatible though. It's a UMI piece that bolts the torque arm to the tranny xmember. |
