C6 Autocrossers Post
Don't see many C6s at the SCCA autocross here in Houston. If you autocross your C6 tell us how you are doing - vitals and mods please.
I switched from a mildly prepared BSP C4 LT1 MN6 to a bone stock C6 MN6 Z51 on Nitto sticky tires and aggressive alignment. I am beating my old C4 times.

I have run my MN6 Z51 w/ LT long tubes on a 1.7 mile road course track with 10 corners on the stock tires with 12,000 miles and was impressed with the grip. I can only imagine how much more fun it would be with sticky tires.
