The wife and I attended two autocrosses this past weekend. The first day (Saturday) was a British Columbia Corvette Club event.

The second day was a Porsche Club of America - PWR event. It was loads of fun. The wife beat me on Sunday by a tenth of a second.

Here's a few pics:

You would have beat her if you put the top on!

Looks fun. I got to do this in a ZR1, at Bondurant this spring.

That is what your Z51 suspension was designed to do. Enjoy!

I can't fit with the helmet on. I am 6'1" tall, but with a 32" inseam. I have a REALLY LONG torso. And with the Harness Bar taking about two inches of reclining room out of the seat, I stick out like a sore thumb

Is anyone (Hardbar are you listening, please?) going to make a Targa Truss for the C6?

And the Pfadt shocks and sway bars. I can tell you the more I autocross the car, the more I love her.

Got wheels and tires for sale guys, so I can fund the purchase of TSW Nurburgrings and R888's
