Well I am new here and I am looking to run at summit point. Really I just want to know where to start.

The main car I am looking to run is a 91 Z28 heres the specs:

-195CC Aluminum heads 5 angle, polished, etc...
-Brand spanking new 350
-LT4 Hot Cam
-Alum. 1.6 Rockers
-3.42 Posi Auburn Rear
-Stock TPI intake
-Poly Bushings
-TDS Wonderbar

I am working on the following:

-8 Point Roll Cage
-Spohn Tubular K-Member and A-Arms
-1-5/16" front sway bars, and 1" Rear.......Would this be ok?
-Aluminum Driveshaft
-T56
-13" Corvette Front brakes
-Y2K C5 5 Spokes
-255 Fronts 275 Rear Undecided on tires..... Any recommedations?
-Wilwood 12.19" rear brakes.... anything out there better?

As for the rest of the suspension I am looking for more suggestions.

I also have a 98 Z51 thats holds the garage floor down and a 91 RS which is my daily driver.

As for summit point where do I start? Who do I contact? etc.

Jon D/Trackbird - the Hyperfest is a full day of activities based around the 'Tuner' cars. They have a midway, bands, entertainment, US Drift 101 classes, drifting, hot laps and a roll over contest.

The contest is you bring some POS car that still runs, put in some sort of rollbar, gut the interior and remove the glass, etc, etc. I'm sure there are rules for this somewhere, I've just not been interested enough to go find them. As an instructor, I'm usually too busy or tired to go watch any of the other activities.

Then they race down 'the Chute' towards 'the Carousel' (main circuit at Summit Pt) and hit a ramp and try to roll the car the most number of times. I do know you can't use an air cannon to assist your roll over. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)

Good lord,

What do you smoke when you do this? (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)
