Just because the car is broke doesn't mean you can't come and watch/help. We like your car...we LOVE you
I do believe USCA is still looking for volunteers to help as cone workers and tech inspection assistants. If I remember they are offering to feed you and supply a handsome T shirt. It may not be union scale...but its fun work. Show up at the track and tell someone you want to help...they won't turn you away.

You'll get some camera time this weekend....they are looking for grassroots guys with real street cars [they've already seen most of the "hitters"] Plus Chad is an early Camaro freak...he'll chat you up on camera or off

Now...who's got an equivelent Mustang? Or Challenger? Or Gen 5 Camaro? We've got some cool Gen 5 struts to demonstrate to you

Remember, the point is to come and have fun. That's how you win.

Thanks Bret! I am having a blast with this car and as you mention, it's just fun to be out there and participate. I really appreciate the comments. My daily driver is a C55 AMG and that too was my goal when I built the car. Turn better, go faster and have better AC and stereo (since they both suck in the Merc) than the C55 without sacrificing the ride. If I could just figure out how to repel rain and dirt on a black car...

Bret, I have a buddy with a nicely modified 5th gen similar to my 69 that is registered for this weekends event at TMS if you want to "demo" those struts. Send me a PM if you want more info or have an interest in connecting with him to talk about your 5th gen struts.

Is this open to the public as far as spectators?

[bret]

Absolutely!
