1999 Chevy Camaro Z28 - American Iron Car potentially for sale

[GlennCMC70]

In the glory days of the RA1 (2005 to 2009? ) there was a saying about tires -Thin to win!
seemed like the tires were fastest just before they would show cords.
Life was simple then. Shave to 4/32nd and run them till they get so thin they cant keep the air in.
That is what a spec tire should be.
We used to say the RA1's sucked, but they sucked for a long time.

I think I just pissed off someone at Toyo

Fuck 'em, they exist because of us and NOT vice versa. I wish big NASA would get this through their money grubbing heads.

Me too.... I used to use 2 full sets of tires per season... even with the last version of the RA1, a set lasted about a weekend and a half. I have not ran the RR, but it sounds to be a set a weekend or not be competitive.

Sorry Mike.. we have crapped up your sale post.

Could we ditch Toyo and pick our own tire?
I'd say we all buy 1 set of 200 treadwear tires and run them for the entire season. The total cost would be under $1k / person. Sure we'd lose a couple of seconds / lap but we'd still all be on the same tire.

Just in case anyone cared.....Mike is selling his race car.

Blazing Saddles anyone?

Here I stand, the Camaro of Desire
Set Mustangs on fire
I have this power
Morning noon and night it's drink and wrench
Some quick racing
And then a shower
Mustangs always surround me
They always hound me
With one request
Who can satisfy their lustful habits
I'm not a rabbit
I need some rest

I'm tired
Sick and tired of racing
I've had my fill of Toyos
From below and above
Tired, tired of working on car
Tired of racing uninspired
Let's face it
I'm tired

I've been in 1000's of races
Again and again
Tire companies promise the moon
Heat cycles always coming and going
Going and coming
And always too soon
Right racers?

I'm tired,
Tired of playing the game
Ain't it a crying shame
I'm so tired
God dammit I'm exhausted



Thanks Madeline Kahn...

After 20 years of racing - I'm tired, feel beat up, and I'm just plain not motivated these days to wrench on it or any other car.

Yup ...

Two years has flown by ...

You need guns.


Blowin' shit up ... on purpose ... is way more fun than by accident.

Last fall, a bunch of us blew up a Mustang with 20lbs of tannerite.

Those things frag nicely.

mmmmm guns!

Mitch, why so many AR's...? Are you a prep'r?

Not a prep'er, just an enjoyer.
There are two of us that use ... Deb is a better shot than I am.

So there are:

two 22LRs
three 556s (because they are stupid cheap right now)
one 5.7x28 (because a 22 caliber round that will penetrate kevlar is just cool)
one 300BLK (pigs)
two 308s (deer)

All have suppressors.

An SBR is waiting on the tax stamp, a dozen or so 1911s and as many polymer and wheel guns and enough ammo that I could have paid off my mortgage had I sold out at the peak of the panic.

And all for the price of a single CMC race car.
