auto cross Good Guys Scottsdale

[Cobra #3170]

Thanks guys, we blew over some pylons on Friday so we installed the Flow Master stainless steel mufflers for Saturday. That really quieted the car down (GoodGuys were happy) but it knocked about 100 horses out. We found that these mufflers did not have the exit velocity to bowl pylons over so that was good. The course was tighter than ever because of last years crashes. We also pulled some rebound out of all four corners and used the new 50 pound stiffer rear springs to balance the car, handling was quite good after that. We had some lean spots in the tune under autocross conditions but called Richard Nedbal of FASTMAN EFI and he corrected the tune for autocross driving.
The car was good from then on and Scott did what he had to do he was consistent and fast on all his runs. He set fast time on both days, won his class, and won the shootout against last years winner Robby Unser. Knowing Scott and how he drives I know he had another second in his back pocket if needed. All in all a very good weekend for us. We also worked with a young man that is just three years into autoxing. He has an old Blazer on a Corvette chassis and we helped him with spring, bar, shock and alignment settings. He was 3rd over all right behind Robby and ahead of all the big dogs so we really celebrated Saturday night. The Blazer is hilarious to watch because it does not look like it would be fast, but is. The crowd loves it and cheered every time he ran. Our next event is Pleasanton this weekend if it does not rain.
