Default Payback VS. Blue Balz With Hot Shoe Mary Pozzi

Chris, let's settle this once and for all at RTTC. I've been thinking and if Mrs. Pozzi will agree to it, she drives both our cars on the autocross at the end of the day, Best car wins. I think that's the only fair way to compare in that venue. She's an autocross champion and it's not my strong suit. I do want the benefit of her making a few runs in my car to get a feel and allow me a tire or shock adjustment before the real deal. She gets 3 runs in each car at relatively the same time. Best CAR wins.

I'll handle the driving in the road race and 0-100-0 events as I feel more capable in those venues.

I am running R888's so I'm willing to give you a reasonable handicap. We can figure that out.

Can the Big Block garage built bruiser, take down the almighty LS7 pro build known as Blue Balz? You in?

Gauntlet thrown! I will be watching this!

(Mrs. Pozzi I would be honored for you to drive my car too if you can squeeze it in. It's an unsophisticated knuckle-dragger but it's 3090lbs with r888's )

It doesn't have to be Mary. Another accomplished driver is OK as well. When I hand over the keys I'll make it very clear not to worry about rev limiters, cone rash, tread depth, etc. Let it rip! Does David have a ride this year?

I think you need an extranormal video to really call him out.

The best thing to get a real comparison would be to get someone thats not familiar with either car but a consistent and good driver to drive both.There is going to be a LOT of driving talent at that place.

Dayum. People getting called out by the ol' big blocks. Now we are talking. One of very few reasons being closer to the west coast would be nice. You guys have fun and don't forget the cameras
