Re: Now that 2017 is in the book what upgrades are folks planning for 2018?
I'm wanting to install interior f/r brake bias control.. Careful what you wish for. Tim Pitts needed two wreckers to get his car back on the trailer at the runoffs - wrecked it on the fifth practice lap after he got the brakes he thought he wanted (interior f/r bias control).

Re: Worst Cars For Inexperienced Drivers
I'm pretty sure I would have dropped something obscure (TVR or Noble) and put Corvette in the top 10.
I was trying to think of other notable "misses".

Re: Harper Cars and Coffee
Some people bring trailers and park them near the Sears Auto area and just move the car to a more relevant spot.

X11 Citations (especially "cheated up" race cars) ran the quarter mile in the same time as the same year Corvettes - so they were actually pretty sporty to autocross (I know that's a little difficult for some to imagine)...
