I just received an e-mail from a GT-1 racer friend of mine.
The SCCA Trans-Am Series is coming back for 2009. They have 6 confirmed dates and are working on three more. Jim Derhaag was the driving force behind the revival. Muscle Milk is the series sponsor. You can see more on the SCCA's website, www.scca.org. The rules will be based on a full tube frame chassis race car. With the three auto makers each sporting a pony car again, I was hoping they would bring the TA series back in the original stock-bodied format. Oh Well. Personally, this is the only series I ever liked from SCCA. I am glad to see it coming back. |

Australian Supercars make me wet. Their tracks are so small that they're basically rr autox's. And, they might as well be running 10° of neg camber the way the fronts sit. Go Marcos Ambrose! Even the Ford Falcons are kind of cool. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)
