Hey guys, as a recent addition to the autox world I had some questions. I AM a v6 Camaro w/ an auto... yes some higher nature has frowned at me in the racing world. However I've decent mods (SLP cai, flowmaster ex., tb spacer, msd wires, zexel lsd, and sfcs) and wanted to know what class I would belong in. Around here I practice autox and some mild drifting on a pass I've found around the local lake. I've looked into that class that's making a tour (can't remember the name) but will be here in March. As a noober, I was wanting just some basic advice for someone who has just entered the relm of autox as well as an anti-flame suit in extreme cases (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . - B

I have an LS1, and have (ahem) been beaten by a V6 Camaro. Not often, but .... It's not easy to actually use all of the V8's power, especially on the smaller courses. I'm only at full throttle for a small percentage of the time.
The V6 is still at a disadvantage, but if properly set up and driven well they can be surprisingly quick. |
