Auto cross camaro any plans?
Any one have any plans to change a camaro into a auto cross car. I have a old 85' I-rock laying around and i wanted to know if any one had an idea of what I needed to do.

I am going to assume that you are talking about the SCCA version of autocross rules. For this the plan is simple. Get Koni single adjustable shocks/struts and install them. Rebuild your front end suspension and get a performance alignment. Go to 2 or 3 events and learn how to drive some then put on some sticky tires and race some more. Konis are going up March 1st so buy them soon. Currently Hoosier AS306's are on clearance so get the tires soon too.

Of champions...and i think he knows what they are really called!
On a side note though.
Im looking into getting in some autocross events this year. Ive always wanted to and my car is setup pretty nicely for the twisties(then again ill have no clue if its REALLY setup for autocross till i try) but it just looks like a blast to do.
My car now has Eibach Springs, Tokico Illumina fronts, Koni yellows on the rear(whenever i install them), New Front Moog suspension. Poly Bushings, Spohn Adjustable LCAs, Panhard, SFCs. BMR 3 point STB, TDS Wonderbar, Some weight reduction and is wraped in 17x8 front 17x9 rear ROH Snypers with Kumho SPTs all the way around. Handles pretty damn good as is...but could be better.
Cant wait to try out auto x!
