Bad Penny Autocross

HERE'S VIDEO OF MY BUDDY STEVE RUPP TAKIG BAD PENNY OUT ON THE TRACK
WATCH FOR CHARLIE LILLARD'S 69 CAMARO "JACKASS" THE YELLOW CAR WITH LS9 ENGINE!
Mary drove her 73 Camaro at Pleasanton and did an amazing job putting down the fastest time of the event except for 1 corvette on softer rubber. Unfortunately I didn't bring my camera and we will have to rely on other peoples photos. Here's a video I found from the event.
Another great GoodGuys autocross, met a lot of great people and I even got a few laps in Mary's Camaro and in James Shipka's One Lap Camaro. Mary displayed her Camaro in the Hotchkis booth when not tearing up the autocross course, thanks go out to the great guys at Hotchkis for their enthusiastic support. Optima Batteries hosted Steve Rupp's Bad Penny and James Shipka's One Lap Camaro in their booth. Below is David and Mary Pozzi, James Shipka, and Steve Rupp staanding in front of OLC, aka "Not Penny". James had a special license plate made for OLC that says "Not Penny" since they have similar color paint.
Hotchkis covered the event very well and did an interview of Mary about driving and suspension systems.
Air Ride also has some photos and an interview with Mary.
Many thanks to Air Ride, Detroit Speed, Hotchkis Suspension, Optima Batteries and Goodguys for supporting events like this. I think the Pro-Touring movement is gaining strength and it's great fun to see people enjoying their cars.Mary gave countless rides and driving pointers both days of the event.
MARY POZZI FINSHES SECOND PLACE OVERALL TO A Z06 CORVETTE!
FASTEST MUSCLE CAR
Had a great time at the Goodguys autocross in Costa Mesa. Mary has alot of Hotchkis parts on her second gen Camaro, so they requested she run this event to show what their bolt on parts can really do. Mary finished second overall in the Autocross by a couple of tenths! The winner was a late model Z06 Corvette. Mary's fastest lap was within the same tenth of a second as Kyle Tucker of Detroit Speed in his awsome second gen Camaro. I can't say enough about Kyle and Stacy of Detroit Speed, such nice people! The guys at Air Ride are true enthusiasts and beat the snot out of their cars on the Autocross course run after run. The Hotchkis guys got a kick out of seeing Mary run so well.
Just look at the fans watching the autocross!
