In order to participate at CFRC, you'll need to get your parent to sign a waiver, since you're not of age, you're legally not allowed to sign our regular waiver. I'll send my manager a email asking for the form.

Ok thanks. I've been to CFRC a few times to watch drift practice, and I don't think any of my underage friends had to sign a special waver, but I may be wrong.

Bring it out...it's been done before. Crown Vics...Caprice-based Impalas...I've even seen someone (at another site, many years ago) bring out a '65 Lincoln Continental.

As long as it can pass tech and isn't a truck or an SUV then bring it. Hell, back in I believe March we had a guy from GRM come out in his 5.0 Volvo Station Wagon.

I had a Volvo 245 wagon for a couple of years (alas, with the stock 2.3-liter)...they're surprisingly good handling cars. I imagine it would be a hoot with a 5-liter and some modifications to keep the rear suspension under control.

One good thing about it is for a 4,400 lb car it handles quite well thanks to the P71's firmer suspension...

pullg- I had a couple Volvos, one a 940 with the stock 2.3 and although those motors are bulletproof, that thing could not get out of it's own way. Good handling cars indeed though

Edit: Would have liked to make this event... too bad I just saw the thread today

And here is a rough idea of what I'm thinking for Saturday...
