1. Michigan road conditions have not changed much in 5 years. [Frown]

2. They throw the book at you if you kill or injure a road worker! [Eek!]

3. American 4th of July weather is similar to our May 24 weather.

4. Its still so cool to buy beer at the corner store. [Razz]

5. Damn car alarms! [Mad]

6. $100.00 + HWY 23 + Dick Harrel Camaro = priceless! [Big Grin]

7. Berger 380hp Camaro's need better tires! [Cool]

8. Someone's Camaro hit a cow on the way to the show! [Big Grin]

9. The traditional loooong awards ceremony is no longer a tradtion!

10. Michigan still puts on the best Camaro show and you folks rock! It was a fantastic time meeting new and old friends. Way to go to both Michigan clubs and thanks for all your hard work and effort! Hope to return next year! [Smile]

Unfortunately Michigans roads are third worst in the entire country and why they have waited so long to start repairing them is anyones guess. Hopefully by next year Michigans reputation will fall farther down the list and everyone can enjoy relatively smooth sailing to come to these great events. [Cool]

Greg i did not forget, I just did not want to embarass the stock Berger Camaro owners and 35th SS guys that I can drive my LT1 up to 3 seconds quicker then they could! [Eek!] [Big Grin] [Razz] . I was 3rd fastest time of the day placing 2 tenths behind the 2nd place car. Both the top 2 cars made use of "R" compound race tires so I was the fastest on street tires. [Cool] Honourable mention to the guy in 3rd gen modified who won. He was only 1 tenth off my fastest time. My 3rd gen friend in the electron blue 84 Z28 placed 3rd and it was his first time ever doing this. Thats rocks! [Smile] No autoX course is set up the same. AutoX is like a box of chocolates. You never know what your gonna get.! [Big Grin]

Glad you loved that autocross event. We could not have done that without the help from the Alfa Romeo Club of Detroit. Those guys are real pros in setting up and running an autocross. You should be very happy with your times on those street tires. [Cool]

Yeah I do, but the bad thing is that is does not follow the affordability of the Camaro. Not many people can afford that $122,000 car!
