Default Well, at least there was a G35 at the UTCC this year

I have been a little dissapointed in the lack of Z's at Grassroots Motorsport's Ultimate Track Car Challenge in past years. This year Graham Hobbs was invited with hit tracked out G35. Look for him in the UTCC article in the near future.

Good Job Graham.


Oh,
He also brought the S&S Chump Truck. Pretty sure it is the fastest 60's Pickup ever tested for the UTCC

Some good friends of mine took their E30 up there. Condor Speed Shop. They did pretty good for a car that started life as a Challenge car.

Yep, Rob Gagliardo drove their car. I especially enjoyed their method of relieving the under hood temps, haha. Easy fix just take the hood off.
