Default A&A Corvette Autocross video. 4/14/2013.

I think the track builder got bored going to slow at other events, so what the heck, let's put in some long straights. The Road Racers would be jealous. Pretty simple course, buts it's all about fun. Besides if you don't like it, come back next time. I really like different courses each time.

17x11.5 front. 17x12 rear. 335/35/17 all four tires. Hoosier A6's. I'm going to try the new BFG's R1S. They make 315 only, but they run wider.

There's a local with the BFGs, whichever is the A6 type, and he kicks some serious ***. He attributes much of it to the tires. He's outrun an ACR Viper who also sets his respective class records.
