So......a long long time ago I spent a bunch of time here. And then I didn’t (long story)
Well I’m pretty much set on the idea I’m going to be autocrossing a 4th gen again. So what has changed? Some things I’ve found already: Tires are drastically more expensive Available “good” r compound options are even more limited Street prepared has some allowances I would have liked to have way back when The “newer cars” have taken over ESP Wheels have gone up in price. I think I only paid $400-450/wheel for CCW’s CAM C looks like a class that I’d probably run in “most” of the time just for the participation. What else has changed in 10 years LOL |

CAM-C, then you don't have to sweat the small stuff (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

CAM-C, then you don't have to sweat the small stuff (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I’m just going to be honest. CAM C looked like fun and a good place to just have some fun. There are a few glaring issues that I just don’t like enough that I bailed before running with that group. 1. CAM C Invitational runs DURING the Pro Solo Finale 2. CAM C is nothing more than a place for the newest cars because of the “rules” 3. Rules are a good thing 4. Worthwhile CAM mods ruin the car for running in real classes 5. It’s not a real class. This is a participation and recruitment class At the end of the day a CAM C car is an expensive car that runs on garbage tires and is still slow IMO |

This is a participation and recruitment class At the end of the day a CAM C car is an expensive car that runs on garbage tires and is still slow IMO I was happy for this class because I put parts on my car without know what AutoX was. Then I got into AutoX and my car was BMT. It is still a street car, so that isn't a fair class! Now I'm complaining because I think CAM C should be restricted to solid axle cars. The new cars were not running CAM-C at first, now they figured out that an '18 Camaro SS is stupid fast and it is pretty easy to annihilate most highly modified CAM-C cars. With that said, I've thrown about everything at my car, minus weight reduction (it is heavy). I'm happy with how it drives now and the fastest 4th gen around my area (not saying much though). I'm still trying to figure out how to make it faster. Where do you plan to run, I see you are in SW Mich? |
