All the cars that i really saw at goodguys were mainly ridetech, speedtech and some roadster shop trucks. Why doesnt there seem to be a whole lot of DSE cars running?

Was Detroit Speed at the event? That usually makes a difference.

Yeah - I always feel way out-numbered at any of these events by DSE-equipped cars. Seems you can't swing a cat without hitting one :-)

The dse cars or cars that are heavily equipped w dse parts dominate the whole autocross scene. They r at the top of the mountain as far pro touring is concerned. Like Vegas69 said where have you been the last 7 or 8 years! They prolly sell more subframes than all of their competition combined for 1st and 2nd gen camaros. Roadster shop makes killer stuff too but I don't think they sell the amount of product that dse does

just got into this scene about 2 years ago. I just dont see a whole lot of fully dse equiped cars in dallas. Most of the stuff that i see is all show. Last goodguys was nice but just not my taste until i saw the cars autocrossing. my buddy rod got my into autocrossing

I was there at the Dallas Goodguys autocross. I even had DSE stickers on the car. I have DSE Quadralink.... works very good. I would have there subframe if I had the money.... but for now I have to settle for stock subframe.

DSE usually pays us a visit at the march show but I think other then Team chandler everyone else is running other suspension items. luckly Marry, Houbagh amd Maier pay us a visit at each show and we usually we get some of the SoCal guys who pay us a visit every now and then. it is nice have 3 out of the 4 GG shows in our area putting on the AUTO-X.

I think we had every company represented at the track in Del Mar in November 2012, there were DSE, Ridetech, Hotchkis, Swartz Performance, Global West, Factory 5, some one off stuff like hellboy and that sunbeam tiger, I see alot of diversity in the autocross scene, just keep racing and have fun :popcorn2:

With Maier racing, everyone else is trying for second.

Looking forward to seeing what will make its way over to Lonestar this year. Especially with an OUSCI invite on the line this fall. Personally, I just want that "Pro" windshield sticker. Prob not going to happen this spring though. Car is still apart for repairs and driver has had no practice since the fall. 5 weeks to go.

The thread title made me think of this picture. There are 2 Ferraris, a formula V, a beamer, 3 Nissans, a C6, a scion, a couple of Porches including a GT3RS, a Cobra, and even a certain forum member here in that picture.

LOL... Anyone find it ironic that the guy starting a thread titled autocross diversity has a Camaro project? :guns:
Sorry. Couldnt help myself. Its a very nice camaro project. Its sitting about as well as any I've seen yet. Looking forward to seeing it in person and watching it run.

^^^ you beat me to it. LMFAO
Randy you going to be ready to go?
I suspect there should be good turn out at this show. R chandler had got his car back together before octobers RTTC so maybe he'll make it, not sure where Flash 68 is on his? I know im out for quite a while now.
then the mix of the DSE fleet,socal guys, plus the normal good stuff and a few other folks Ive talked to on other sites, looking to debut their car. Should overall be a good weekend weather permitting?LOL

Just another lowbudget private guy like some of us, but pretty cool build and he'll be making it to the march show:

^^^ sorry I was speaking of our area and some how got it mixed it, I thought Randy was in my neck of the woods. Having a newborn that doesn't let me sleep has caused me to not really "gather my marbles" lately.

Since Randy is in Texas, I will have to come up in June and help keep the Fords in the minority. :lol:
BTW, that event James posted a picture from was a lot of fun!
