I FINALY got around to going to my first autox sesson this weekend at raceway park in NJ. I have never had so much fun behind the wheel of my car in all my life. Ive wanted to give it a shot for a while but I couldnt convince any of my friends to go, they are all to into drag racing too much to care.

But anyway I had a blast and completely distroyed what was left of my already dying GS-C's. I started the day out with about 66 seconds runs but by the end of the day I had a best of 60 seconds and something.

Im so glad I found this board looking for suspension info otherwise I probaly would have never gotten around to it.

Sounds like you ran with the NNJR/SCCA. The core group is a nice bunch of guys. Did you ask for an instructor? If you didn't, you'll find that you'll make greater progress with their help. F-body champs Mike and Diane Johnson are frequent participants as are Bruce Bellom and Ron Bistrais. All of them have vast experience autoxing F-bodies and would be good resources. Tony Crea is a fun person to take a ride with or have for an instructor. If you go again, ask for an instructor when you register. Glad you had a good time. Once you get used to autox and looking ahead, you'll want to try an HPDE. After all if you had fun in 60 seconds of track time, imagine what 20-30 continuous minutes would be like on a road course. You've taken a first hit off the 'ol go fast crack pipe, there's no turning back now.
