Someone lied to you. haha
Robert will be a great instructor however and give you great pointers!

He must not have liked it. Not enough power.
After reading Mark's post I thought I might have been mistaken because I didn't think the guy I bought it from would lie to me. I did see Carpenters name on the very disappointing dyno sheet I got with it.

Your class doesn't matter for the school. It will for the event Sunday, though. However, I'm sure you can find out your correct class at the school. If you want to know before then, start a new topic in this section asking for class information. Include everything you know about the car. If it's completely stock, then all you need is the manufacturer, model and year. Otherwise, list all the modifications that have been made in addition to make, model and year.

Someone said Cracker Barrel?!?

Hey guys, this will be my first SCCA event. I'm looking forward to getting some good instruction, and hopefully learn something.
