I'm a left foot breaker, any left breakers, I usually apply break and gas simultaneous to keep the revs up, is that a good thing? Thanks. fear:

Glad to hear! This will be a great event to get into Autocrossing! Many of the best autocrossers are left foot brakers!

We are one step closer to an Awesome Autocross event!

I have received the final contract and insurance information so it should be a Done Deal in a few days!

If there are any vendors that want to be involved, this will be a Great way to show support for the C5 Family!

The big questions is... Do you want Professional instruction at the event?
This will greatly effect the cost of the event but many of you have talked about it so I thought I would ask. I have put this together for you The Camaro5 Family and any of your family and friends that want to enjoy an Awesome day of racing your car, and it doesn't have to be a Camaro, although I will be designing the course for our cars! The down side to professional instruction is again the cost. To have enough instructors it will cost from $150 to $200 per person.

The alternative is that I have talked with several of the Race Team members (Dannie Pinard, Don Gonzales, Mike Haddad, even myself, and a few others) and we would be willing to provide "informal" instruction during the event. This will reduce the cost to $65 per participant and would be more of a one on one instruction with someone you probably know. The idea here is to provide a safe, fun, low stress environment to encourage "First Timers" to Come Out And Race. With that said, there will be a completion going on for all that attend and we will have plenty of Awards to give out, kind of like the Super Chevy Show. For all of you "Hard Core" drivers, the track will be more of a mini road course and will still challenge even the most experienced drivers.

The event is scheduled for Saturday, November 16th at the Santa Anita Race Track. I will post more event details and registration information next week. I hope to see you there!

Come Out And Race

Hell yea I'm def in!

Death to the cones in my way! LMAO!!!
