Default USCA Event Fontana Custom Works Camaro

So all went well. The only issues we had were a too soft rear sway bar, and one of our BFG Rival tires decided to start coming apart. Our autocross and Speed Stop results weren't what they could have been, but that's what we had for the course that day. The Roadcourse was a lot of fun, and I feel we placed about where we should have. It was an honor to place second in the design and Engineering Portion, which was judged by Steve Rupp, Cam Douglas (optima), Lingenfelter Honcho, someone from K&N, and Larry Calehan from Pro-touring.

10th- Overall finish

12th- Autocross

12th- Speed Stop

7th- Roadcourse

2nd- Design & Engineering

here is a video of the 3 competition events

Nice work, Keith! I'm one of the hundreds of people to whom you've donated a ride at a Goodguys event, and I know your car works and sticks like snot. Here's hoping to see your car at a Laguna Seca USCA next year!

That's a bummer about the tires, but it confirms my choice of not buying the Rival, regardless of all the good words I've heard about them--I've seen pictures of the horizontal separation issue...
