I have decided to enter my 3rd Gen Camaro into this event, just hope the mods I have done work OK including new head gaskets, cutting down Spohn supplied front springs and balancing car, new Eaton LSD, Moser 28 spline shafts and new bearings and seals and a Jegster Panhard bar relocater bracket! Can't be any worse than it was thats for sure oh and hopefully adjusting the shockers the right way round this time. http://beta2011.cadwellpark.co.uk/calendar.../sept/barc.aspx Will have the incar camera on as usual.

Thanks Kev I will do my best. Seeing the 3rd Gens go on the incar video under Road Racing I am convinced there is a lot more to come from this car that I havnt yet seen. BTW some friends of mine will be comingto the States soon to race, Watlins Glen and tracks near New York I think sometime in Sept. A close friend of mine is going and has bought quite a well known Notch Back Mustang (there are I said the word) historic (Vintage) racecar over there he flew over the over the other week to do the deal and is keeping in the States for a while and is planning some races next year including Sebring, I will crew for him I am sure at at least one of those. He is going at the end of the week with a party organised by UK Corvette racer and another friend Bernie Kodash, anyone know him?

It would be cool to get a chance to buy you a pint (or a few) if you get close to Ohio or somewhere I can get out to meet you guys. I'd love to have you drive my Camaro for a few minutes, you'll love it or hate it, but I'm sure it's different from your current setup.

That's not a name I know, but I haven't been to an HSR or SVRA race in a while. I used to handle crew chief duties for a 1971 Mustang Mach I.

That would be cool. I will post up more on my mates events as I find out. His name is Cliff Ryan, a proper paddy name! BTW Bernie is organising a V8 Historic race meeting in October in aid of the Help for Heros charity for wounded soldiers I have entered it looks good, he is hoping for a 6 round series next season.

My friends have been delayed because of Irene and now wont be there till Monday, not sure when or where the races are but I know one is at Lime Rock and I think Watlins Glen.

Found other things wrong with IROC apart from knackered LSD, shockers all adjusted wrong, front sprngs too long causing unbalance in the chassis, this was also causing a set on the sway bars so rectified that today and to my horror I checked the front wheel alignment and it was towing out about 3/4" !!!!! That may have been due to a side swipe I took the last time I took the car out though if not I cannot understand how that has happened and the whack was more on the door although there was evidence of tyre contact on the front rim but cannot see any damage to the steering. Also the panhard bar needed adjustment as the axle was about 8mm over to one side but again that may have been due to the fitting of the panhard drop bracket which has lowered the bar about 2 inches. Lets hope we see a difference next weekend and it all comes together.
