@HeadBanger -- do you have a link to the results?

Hard to tell for sure from that pic, but it sure looks like a early/mid 60s Valiant or Dart. At first glance, I thought it was a Max Wedge car, but it doesn't look big enough for that.

The old car is a beautiful Studebaker running a wicked sounding 421 ci small block.

3 days in, status update.

Day 1 - Mosport

We did well despite the Mosport power track not really suited to our car. Got a 1:41 lap, some issues including catching others on my hot laps prevented us from doing better.

We got 3rd in Autox, so we ended up 3rd overall.

Day 2 - Calabogie

Time Attack was on the East track, we rocked out a very fast 1:20.8 to secure 4th.

In autoslalom, we came out with our first win thanks to Kenny (Umb FRS) over the CanJam WRX and the Scion Racing Speed Academy in 3rd.

Day 3 - Calabogie

Time Attack today was on the full course, we figured we would end up around 5th or 6th due to the faster cars and the track layout with more straightaways.

I ran a great lap and got a 2:26.7 on my first session. Scion Racing had a 2:26.5 and was narrowly ahead of us in 2nd with us in 3rd.

Second session I had to step it up despite the track getting slower. Squeezed out a 2:26.2 to grab second and it stuck for the day.

Final was WRX first, Team Slickauto.ca second (us), Camaro SS third and Scion Racing 4th.

Autox was a tight battle with CanJam WRX beating us out for first, but we secured 2nd with a Miata in 3rd.

For the day we got 2nd in both events and still 3rd overall so far but even closer to Scion Racing in 2nd place.

I wondered if that's what it was...the body line on the 1/4 panel had me 2nd guessing the valiant/dart guess...same with the emblem on the C-pillar. Its a Lark, right?

Those are some very good results, @Slick !! Good job guys

Quick question for some of you guys(at least I hope some of you can answer me). any of you running FI (Turbo or SC) and still run the car in winter? Anything special you guys do before the winter season? Reason for this is I'm planning on running a kw c38 all winter long and wanted to know what steps you would recommend taking, if any.
Never ran a FI car in winter lol but I assume(maybe incorrectly) that a SC would be simpler to run in winter than a turbo.

@shortcut drives his in winter if I remember correctly.

I drove an Rb20 swapped S13 through winter. The only problem I had was getting heat into the thing before getting to my destination lol
