heyyyy scott :bigthumb: welcome to the forum. Scott is very knowledgable, guys, and he’ll bring a lot to Pittspeed. Plus, he’s a nice guy (unless you get in his face, it would appear…lol). Man, after looking at the video from North Park, that looks like fun. That was the swimming pool parking lot, right? I’d like to try that with the GTO. ---

All NHSCC events are held there, which is nice since you don’t have to deal with summer heat 😉 By all means, bring the GTO out. You will be in good company since there is a blue '06 out there running at the top of the class in FS. I am aching for a ride-along in that car… Rides in my car are always free as long as you are willing to run the video camera and give me good slalom tips 😃 ---

In the coming year, I will be changing a lot on the car. Back in 1997, I owned a 1995 Impala SS that I was going crazy with and mostly built a stout 395" stroker. In no particular order: ran out of money, had a business go belly-up, got married, had a couple of kids and bought a house. Fortunately, I kept the engine through all that even though I sold the SS. Now it’s time to finish the engine project and get it in this car over the winter. :hsdance: > > I will be trying to attend the remaining autocross events this year as long as the worn out borrowed tires don’t show cords. It’s my first time on-course in 6+ years, so I am more interested in getting seat time than worrying about who beats who.

A Six Speed anything is cool :burnout: I used to autoX at North Hills alot, but haven’t done it for a while. I wish I’d AutoX’d my '04 GTO before I got rid of it. How many more Sundays are they doing it this year? Still start around 9-10am? I’d like to make it out before the season is over. ---

I had a Subaru 2.5RS around that time. It was black with black Koenig GTR wheels with a blue anodized lip. I ran it several times through a summer, I just don’t remember which summer. I had the car from Dec '98 to Mar '01. If I were to guess, I would say summer 2000. I used to run ESP with my '78 Grand Prix. That was when the Chubal’s had the Red/Gray Saleen Mustang & they would always get 1st(him) & 2nd(her) place. Back then they didn’t know where to put the GP, so they went by a “new” GP specs & said since my '78 had a V8, I was ESP. Car had a 305 2bbl & fully stock suspension, 15" rally wheels (stock), with dual exhaust. Seems fair, a purpose built AutoX car (Saleen) with full adjustable race suspension, and me with a 1978 turd. I still had fun, though - even if I didn’t get into first place. I’ve gotten several 1st place plaques from other vehicles I AutoX’d, so it didn’t really matter, anyway. ---

Hmm, I don’t remember either car, but I do remember the Chabel Saleen. Whenever they were running that, Sam Strano had the medium blue IROC and the Raffertys had both cars. No matter, we are all older now…not sure if I am any wiser, though :eek4: At any rate, if it’s dry, I’ll be there. ---
