Corvettes @ the NJ Pro Solo....
In particular Strano Performance Parts customers, tore it up!
Top 2 in the Challenge? Customers, both on my 33mm front bar.
Top 3 in SSR? All on Koni's, with the custom rod-end lowers and 2 of them on my own spec sway bars. The other car was on a bar I sold him, we haven't convinced him to change yet.
Top 2 in A-Street? Daddio on Koni's and my bar. Johnson on MCS's (which I also sell) and a stock bar (his bar is coming in next week). one on "BridgeRiches" (RE71R front/Rival S rear) and Johnson on Rival S all around. .019 between 'em. Then Daddio won the Challenge.
Top 3 in B-Street? Same thing, except with special mention to Evan Schickel who won his first Pro (ever) over some tough folks in the Kozlak's. And Evan while on a good front bar is still on stock shocks... though I think that'll change soon cause he now realizes he can like win, win.
And he's got some better pads on the way from me today too. And double props for making it to the final in the Super Challenge too dude!
Stephanie Reeve won L1 in the family C5 Z06 and then the Ladies Challenge.
Kandy Johnson thumped L2 in their family C6 Z06 (front bar is coming it's shipping to me Friday!!!).
How'd I do? Meh, was stupid to take my half-assed not really STU car, but wanted to see my friends and save my Z06 events for those on concrete. But through Saturday I was less than .3 behind fast guy Barbato in a full prep 350Z. both of pounded by the launch and "dig" ability out of two back to back 25mph corners to the finish. But considering I've got no headers, stock springs, no tune, I guess it went ok. Car turned great! Just lacking punch.
We (as in customers on my parts) tore it up in other places too. Top 3 of 4 in C-street. Winner in E-Street, 2nd in F-street, 2nd and 3rd in G-Street. Yeah, all in all I can't complain.

Thank you for all of your help and advice over the years Sam! We made a pretty good showing for our third event in the new to us Z06 for running in the shark tank known as SSR.
