Thanks for starting the thread Ed, Craig's car will be a stellar entry for the Corvette team .

Here is my shameless plug for votes to get accepted to the aray myself.

Please vote for our cars and rate with 5 stars to improve its rating...

I wonder if any factory cars will show up this year, like 2 years ago.

A couple of GT1 cars with good drivers could make this very difficult for OEM type race cars.....

I guess we'll all find out If we get invited to compete

Hi guys. I don't really know much about the Grassroots UTCC,
except it looks like a lot of fun! In reading the rules, it appears
cars like Viper Comp Coupes, Porsche Gt3 cups, etc, are now
categorized in Shop, where folks like Danny & I would be Independent
study. I also would consider the GT1 Camaro & Trans Am vette
a shop car, meaning cars that were built from a street going
production chassis like mine & Danny's would not directly compete.
anyone who knows more feel free to chime in.
Thanks--Craig

Voted for both. Both look very very nice and well built. Really hope to see Danny make it into this and also a built C4 out there as well. Good luck!
