Hmmmmm.... I forgot about the Auto-X

Might need to toss the 96 on the trailer when I head down. Never had it on an Auto-X course before. Not sure it would react too well to a tight course but the fun is in trying!

I don't feel like towing it 1,900 miles round trip. Just too GD expensive. More practical to drive the C6 and get 30 mpg on the way up.

My truck and wallet thanks you I think the C6 would be a lot less of a hassle. And I think we can do some damage on the Auto X track in it too

It's fast enough, as evidenced by my results with Liz's C6 in Texas, but it can't beat Val's Z on race rubber.

I agree, the drive up will be much more pleasant, and much less stressful, if we just go in the C6.

Maybe you should design the course for BR, then maybe it would beat Val's Z
Pleasant no stress drives are where it's at. Plus we could go at a little higher pace on the highways, except through Georgia. Those LEO's are POS's

NCM has a crew that coordinates the autocross. Regardless, I'm not sure I could design a course that would favor the C6 over the C6Z.

That being said, I spent all Saturday morning with Patty at the school in the C6. On the first run on the big course in the C6Z I hit 4-5 cones. That 3 inches makes a BIG difference.
