Stevenson Motorsports wins

Oh, no....did I read somewhere that the Camaro SS from Stevenson Motorsports beat the Rousch 302R GT at Road America this weekend. Oh, man, the Mustang guys are going to mess there pants when they hear that!!! The 302R GT has been their knight in shining armor and now the Camaro is beating them on road courses as well as the drag strip....YIKES!!

Yeah but no offense, isn't Ford ahead of us in the manufacturers points just behind BMW? Not happy about that. These Camaros are more capable cars than the Mustangs and from what I've researched so far, We should be beating them more often.

The fact of the matter is that the BMW's and Mustangs have had smaller restrictors in place to slow them down and allowed the Camaro to remove its restrictor. This is to make the Camaro's and Caymans more competitive. The Ford's and BMW's were running away with the series before this. So.....

Quote:
"Grand-Am officials made a few rule changes to limit the BMWs and Mustangs, and help out the Camaros. Coming into Watkins Glen, series officials eliminated the air intake restrictor from the Camaros, and specified a smaller restrictor for the BMWs and Mustangs."
