I'm guessing no one in this thread actually races.

Not really sure what you're getting at. Do you mean Cobalts or in general? BoostedYards is at PRP regularly, but doesn't own an Ecotec anymore. Several others go up there, again, not in Cobalts/Ions.

I used to go to BeaveRun at least once a year. Haven't gone for 2 years though. Once the Cobalt is back up and running and set up for curves instead of straight line, I'd love to start going again now that I have more cash to invest in it. Probably won't be until next year though. House stuff is more important.

Thet have AutoX test an tune at PIRC (Beaver Run all the time ) Track days every now and then for the road course which are a blast. Nelson Ledges has track days but its 98 miles and better if you tow there in case you break something. North Hills Sports car Club AutoX

I've seen just about anything at PRP. Cavy's, muscle cars, grocery getters, trucks, etc.

I'll be back up at Pitt (so hard not to call it BR) probably next year either in the Cobalt or whatever I end up replacing it with. Plan on making the Cobalt a fall/winter project. I have about $10k in house projects I want to work through first.

That supra is nasty! I was trying to look for it but I didn't see it parked. I saw it 2 years ago at beavers at it wasn't looking good but I didn't care it was 1200hp! Lol but this time I think he did up the body kit now and it looks great now and is fast!

TO ROYCE777
SORRY I thought it was somewhere else!

I do. Popping the Z06's hillclimb cherry on June 23-24 (Pagoda Hillclimb). So far this year I have autocrossed twice in two different cars (my Z06 and a friend's LS1 Miata), been to PRP twice,once in the '64 and once in the Z06. Haven't been out as much as usual as I have been rushing to get the Z06 ready. Rollbar install, harnesses, brakes....

Although to be fair I really wouldn't call hitting the test and tune on Thursday nights racing, although it has been fun this year.

Ha Ha right. Mark when are you going to drive my balt so I can see how bad of a driver I am. Got my time at PIRC down to 1.11 flat short shifting it at 5200 rpm because of tune issues. I know you could do a 1.05 in this car. Ha Ha
