I finally took my 1986 Dodge Omni GLH-Turbo to the track yesterday, first time i had it at an event in over 2 years... i was SUPER PLEASED with my results!!
I placed 11th overall, out of 45 cars. at the end of the day, during the fun runs, i shaved another 1+ seconds off my time, which would have been enough for 6th overall! I run in SM class. the biggest class! 21 cars. i took 5th i think overall in my class. LOTS of Evos, AWD DSMs, and Subies in this class. I was VERY happy with the new Koni Coilovers from FWD Performance and Hoosier race rubber. the car was solid throughout!
I ran heats 2&4, which got RAIN both time!! we only got 3-4 dry runs in, while both heats 1&3 got 7+ dry runs in!! so i figure if i had a little more dry runs, i could have done a little better overall. Anyways, i just wanted to share this with everyone, as i was really pleased with the results. especiially considering this is only my 5th or 6th event EVER. 2nd with this car ever... and that was 2yrs ago!
