not on the drag strip, but on the autocross course.
There were two Goats there, and I think they were both on street tires, same as me. My fastest time of the day was a 46.136 and the fastest of the two goats was 47.4sumtin.
The outcome wasn't a surprise to me. GTO's suspension is so soft and the steering isn't as driver friendly as the GT's.
I was amazed that I was the first to autocross an 05 GT in my area. Being in the North Texas area SCCA event, I figured someone would have done a GT before me. When I heard that mine was the first at such an event, I felt I had to represent.
Overall I placed 9th out of 17. I blame that on learning the car and getting comfortable with a driving style. There is always next season though.
