A recent shot of my 92 1LE Camaro at VIR (March)

QUOTE (AndyJ @ Apr 30 2008, 01:04 AM)  I have been thinking about un-mothballing my car for a run at the Texas Mile this fall. It is just a laid back weekend speed fest at Goliad. You up for some of that? Maybe we could get Guy to show up as well? Do it Andy. I drove that car and that car is meant to be driven. Blow the dust off and let it run.

The car is race ready-- just like it came off the trailer at Nashville. |

QUOTE (GuySS @ Apr 30 2008, 07:15 AM) Keep pestering me and I might just make it to Goliad this year. I have nothing of my own to really run down there but I might convince some Houston friends to make the event and tag along with them. Guy, Run the black car -- I bet you would see 160+. Entry fees are pretty cheap. Only problem with Goliad is there are really no decent motels close. The airport is out in the BOONIES. |

Andy, the black car you are thinking of is under a tarp in back of the garage. The current black car is almost bone stock and that's why I don't think it would be much fun at Goliad.

I bet you could run 150 in the mile Guy, or uber close. I really want to go this year, but it is too early to commit.

As it rolls closer, we will see if I can find something to pull down there on the trailer.

I know what you mean, the satin black paint on my wheels usually looks more like flat black for the same reason!

My 2008 competition car... still DS for now, but if I decide to stir up trouble, it's going to ESP. At least when it gets moved out of ESP, I'll still have my Camaro to fall back on... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Nice Karen. I wondered how long it would take you to wind up adding a Subaru to the stable. Looks good!

Do AutoX "Race Cars" count? Especially stock class ones?
Last Years setup for ESP (IMG:http://usera.imagecave.com/sstrokerace/ForSale/IMG_8604.jpg) (IMG:http://usera.imagecave.com/sstrokerace/ForSale/IMG_8672.jpg) This Years FS setup (IMG:http://usera.imagecave.com/sstrokerace/ForSale/CNYNYSFair4-27-08.jpg) (IMG:http://usera.imagecave.com/sstrokerace/ForSale/SEAD5-4-08.jpg) No pictures of it in driver trim but I have a set of ZO6 wheels in flat black so they stay nice and clean looking!

Not a real race car, but as close as I have ventured, so far...
