I have entered the 2nd gen Camaro for this one as its a fast circuit and the 2nd gen has a 3.5 final drive, the 3rd gen a 3.73 and tends to be a tad undergeared here and as I am sharing the car with Cliff Ryan I don't want the engine buzzed! Cliff is the guy who owns a Mustang and keeps it out in the States and let me have a drive at Daytona last year. He is racing at the Watkins Glenn Cobra fest in June(?) and I may still join him not sure yet (depends if he offers me a drive lol!). Bernies V8s is a new series started by englishman Bernie Chodosh for originally V8 engined cars I entered the inaugural one last season and it was a hoot, so far its prooving very, very popular and already has over 30 cars entered for the season opener. If anyone is in the UK and can get over to Norfolk to watch it will be well worth it as there will be a fantastic array of cars mostly American muscle. Bernie also organises the American trips like Daytona and Watkins Glenn for us english guys so may be known to some of you.

Opening 10 minutes from the 40 minute two driver race with my mate Cliff Ryan (he owns a Mustang race car in the States and will be at the Cobra festival at the Glen) at the helm. Under the circumstances he drove very well concidering he had never sat in the car before the race http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPnXCB_itm0
