the 350evo team will be there...seeing if anyone else was going to support the team?

should be a great weekend, i'm getting there saturday morning...and will post some pics after the weekend

 

are you going there to watch or to drive? I'm interested in the road driving if that's what's going on? where can I find more info?

 

it's all professional..an actual series...so i'm going to watch

 

BTW....there will be 3 or 4 more 350Z's entered. Please wish them ALL good luck!

Is BJ going to drive a Rustang? or his Z? Or a Porsche?

Please take LOTS of pictures!

 

BJ is back in the Z! Good luck to the 350Evo team. All the Performance Z's will be there too with diff. driver/owners.

BJ's Z ran well. Started around 35th and finished 14th.

 

bj raced very very well...i took a bunch of pictures and will load them up as soon as i can.

the performace nissan/unitech team also did very well. they were in third place for the last 20 minutes or so, then i went to get food toward the end of the race then they ended in 40th place...something must have happened that i missed.

all in all...very hot and humid weekend!! saw only two Zs including mine

 

...watching it right now on my TiVO.


I love this series, wish it was coming to Fontana again.

 

Nice pic.

 

Looked at the rules of the grand am cup "GS" class. Why does ford get to use a non-production engine/block ( 5.0 dohc "cammer" crate engine) that has 440 hp, while everyone else is using a production block and bore? I thought you had to use what you sell, but obviously I must be wrong.

BJ your response?

 

Sorry for the "me too" post but I can't help it.

This is a great series to watch. Go for all three days if you can swing it. I did the full weekend at Laguna Seca and man, what a show. We had two 350's in the Grand-Am race on Staurday night (Performance Nissan Racing). Both were very fast but ended early due to some track damage. The competitive Mini's are fun as hell to watch too, mixing it up with the RX-8's and the like.

As for the Rolex Race. Man, what a blast. There was an article on the series in Car and Driver last month. They basically said that if they changed the aero on the cars, they could push 230 MPH. I believe it. The sound of the 50+ cars on the track coming by at full tilt is mind-blowing. Bring earplugs (but listen to it one time around without )

Rumor has it that Unitech Racing is working on a 350Z for the GT class. I cannot WAIT to see that. Look out Porsche...here we come.

a gt class 350 battling it out with those gt3s....oh man....that'd be a show

 

How come I only saw GT3s, GTOs, BMWs in the mixed racing with the prototypes? I was wondering where the Stangs, Mazda's and 350zs were! I see Speed Channel has Grand Am only listed racing events coming up. Will those have all the GA cars in them?

 

the gt3s and a few m3s and gtos were in the rolex series...a different series than the grand-am. grand-am cars race don't race rolex but are held the same weekend.

 

yes, you must run what you sell.
you can buy the mustang thats running the race from Ford.
