The tire spec included BFG R1, Hoosier R6/A6 ... those tires don't need shaving.. lol -- you can't really complain that cars were running tires that were ok to run in the competition.. Personally I hope they move back to a real "street tire" next year, maybe a 200 treadwear or 100 treadwear like last year. And it wasn't the fastest Camaro.. at least two '69 Camaros were faster Both of those '69s aren't "full roll cage cars".. they have roll bars (no cages) but are easily capable of being daily driving. Both the DSE '69 and the Jackass '69 have done long hauls on the Power Tour, so don't make it sound like they are some sort of race cars. That's just not fair. Oh, can I borrow your driver next year? Ok, now that I've busted you balls (in good fun).. I will say you car look killer going around that track.. nicely done and you have a VERY nice car!

Paul is a consultant for us, and this was a great opportunity for him to drive it in a all out way and advise us. We are very happy with the way she handled and appeared. I still do not think we got the official times yet. mike dms |

What Mike meant to say is we were the fastest 2010 Camaro at the event, but feel free to bust away.

Maybe you don't understand what a shaved tire is.. if so that's ok.. I just don't want people to get confused. Your car was badass and Paul drove the crap out of it..

And yes, I do believe you had the fastest 2010 times. You were in the exhibition class though, right?

All those cars ripped it up.
I've seen videos of Steve's Penny and that thing is NASTY! DSE has some cars out there, as usual and ripped it up as well. I've seen Yancy's car in some of these videos. Jack Ass ripped from what I've seen. Fesler's 2010 Camaro moves out pretty good too! Someday I'll make it out there to SEMA and this Optima Challenge, either with a car or as a spectator!! GOOD JOB GUYS!! |

As the for the top three (four if you count me) I would say you're are completely right on the Cobra, that was a race car. However the both '69 Camaros are easily considered street cars. Heck, Stacy at DSE drives that '69 all over the place. The yellow '69 did the Hot Rob Power Tour long haul of over 2000 miles. Full interior, AC all the creature comforts (and an LS9.. lol). My car is more on the stripped down side.. but still a street car. Anyways, I though you guys did great with your 2010 Camaro and certainly showed that it can haul ass around that track when in the right hands. So who had the shaved tires?

My '68 is only 6300 without driver.. the DSE and Jackass cars are most likely in the 6500 to 6600 range sans driver due to having AC and in the case of Jackass a blower and such. I imagine Pedders Camaro has to be near 4,000 lbs.. so getting those laps times is no small feat.
