Default I won my first National Event
I won my class at the 2013 Tire Rack SCCA Match Tour. I raced one R comps for the first time and didn't do to bad I think there is a lot more time to shave off on my runs, also I didn't have abs this weekend and my fronts kept locking on me ruining runs. I dropped my hub on the abs sensor smashing it while putting my arp studs in.
I know this forum is most drag junkies but you should really get out of your comfort zone with your car and try autocross. The f-body platform really handles good if setup properly, also I could use the competition.

Very nice manm congrats. Id love to try autoX but I just don't have the time or money currently, perhaps if I pick up a vette in the near future.

Autocross is pretty affordable. All you need is a car and events cost $30-55 per day some also include lunch. You don't need to get as into it as I have. I am trying to become competitive nationally and run R comps. Try it and see how you like it. It is also great to learn car control and other mechanics.

bet the A4 clutch packs would take a beating, but like everyone else, finding time to play has become more difficult.
