I have too much fun driving improperly to make it into the top 10! ....my burnout start and cone bowling on my last run were not helpfull.

What a cool venue; odd venue rules and extra paperwork for everything, but still cool.
Low life thieves screwing up my car couldn't stop me from having fun.

I have watched the autocross many times, But have never done it myself. Long story short I got a ride with Kyle Tucker/DSE in the Nova. What a ride. Need to get a car built to do it myself now. The most fun I've ever had in 45 seconds.

Any car will do, it need not be anything special, just quit being a wallflower, go and have fun.

My buddy (he works for Arnie Beswick) has a 62 tempest & is making it into a nostalgic gasser, but I think it would make a great PT car. I'll be watching your 63 build when you get some updates going.
I just figured out which Camaro was yours. Good lookin' second gen. I dig the motion stripe!
