macalot, I decided to go ahead and register. I see there are two ZL1s and your Z/28 registered now. Hopefully we can make some Mustangs look silly! Look forward to meeting you. See you there.

This is an old saying and a lot of people use it but I think it's technically wrong. It should be said as: Practice makes permanent. Practice will only make perfect if you practice it perfect every time. If you practice it wrong every time then guess what...you will execute it wrong every time.

I've always said with cars like the Camaro it's not about miles per gallon...it's about the Smiles per gallon

Glad to see you had a great day at the track. I've yet to experience my first road course. I've only done Autocross and that gets my adrenaline pumping and puts a big permagrin on my face. I can only imagine what a road course does to you!
