An 80's "econobox" wins the Concours and a Jeep and the same 80's econobox take 1 and 2 in the autocross. Go ChryCo!

The Jeep was a blast to drive. I could put it just about anywhere and power-on mid-corner out was awesome. The fast sweeper had killer cornering Gs. I had made some suggestions after driving it 2 years ago and they acted on them all and they worked!!!

The trouble with the autocross is we have no internet in the vast parking lots of Gainesville Raceway, so we just don't have the bandwidth to stream anything.

Fingers crossed, though, we should have good enough internet to throw the webcam in the window for the drags tomorrow. Initial tests today were promising. Watch this thread and Facebook and hope for the best.
