Ok here's what went down in this C5 Fest Camaro-cross... there are 5 classes....c1 is stock v6, c2 is stock v8, c3 is v8 modified (youve put some after market s...tuff on) c4 is super modified like you put a super charger on and basically nothing is left stock and c5 is for shop cars like built for racing only..... Casey's is c3, its what he was last year and what he won first place for last year and nothing has been added....he has some aftermarket stuff but no super charger. ... well they decided to put him in c4 against all the super modified Camaros....well he won 3rd place in that class.. AND he was only .400/sec (400th of a second) behind the first place car in the c4 class so he did amazing but they shafted him a first place win by putting him in the wrong class.

I was not there but it sure sounds unfair. Yeah, he is good but isn't that the point of competition? Classifications are supposed to be based on modifications so what gives here? Regardless, you did great Casey & we are very proud of you.
I am a beginner and didn't have much chance anyway, it was more a learning experience than anything, but they put me in c4 even though I have a stock bottom end, no spray, and no forced induction. My pistons aren't even fly cut and the only suspension mod I have is lowering springs. So beats me about the class, but I had a blast running!!!
