Dou you guys think it would be worth it to trailer the e30 to Fontana? I would prefer to have it there, but I just don't know if I will feel up to driving it there.
Of course the other option is to drive the stock Si. I can't believe how much difference there is in body roll stock vs HFP.

I would say trailer the E30 up there...

Figured it out. E30 will prob be the one. FR, low weight, low hp, and entertaining.

hopefully I'll wind up with a BRZ, if anything changes I'll either look at some other rwd choices or just add some better tires & the gtworx bilstein kit to the wrx

What sort of speeds are we looking at on the dragon? is this like a maintained 40mph fast auto-x course?

How may I help?
I'm sure there must be videos posted from previous 8thcivic runs to watch, and get a feel for the speed. To be honest, I never really know how fast I'm going. You have a second or so to react to each turn. You just move with the group. The most time you have to see what's coming is on switchbacks.
I spent 98% of the time in 2nd gear in the Si, and on a few occasions came close to the 8600 rpm rev limiter on the reflashed motor. So whatever that translates to as a maximum speed, then...

Sweet! Good idea! Thanks Ken. I've watched Keiths 22 min vid earlier in this thread but his speedo was cutoff.

^^ that. In the si you can run the whole road in 2nd gear basically, or get into 3rd if you don't want to be at such high revs. Depending on how big the group is, and the amount of traffic on the road will also dictate the speeds. I think the posted speed limit is 35mph through most of it, but there are sharp turns that have require much lower speeds.
