Auto cross, drags or drifting?

Post by Capeasy »

Hey guys, thinking of entering my Caprice at the LS fest. Where do these Caprices really shine when it comes to showing off their potential? I love the deceptive appearance of these GMs on steroids ,
So what event or events would I be safe to enter?

None, really. You can, however, have fun running 'what ya brung' at the event and take satisfaction in what you outrun with these heavy, long wheelbase cars. Getting on the podium would be icing on the cake.

We occasionally autocross our car, usually when the weather is too nasty for our C Prepared Firebird. We're mid-pack in the car, at best, but it sure is fun, and attracts a lot of attention. Not as much attention as when we autocross our Tahoe PPV, but it gets people's attention, just the same.
