Default NASA Champions, please post

So we have one for SCCA, I thought it was time the NASA guys get some recognition. I know a few of you guys are National and Regional champions, but the details I'm fuzzy on.

If you're a past or current National or Regional champion. Or have a track record in a class, please post here. I'd love to do a "screen name" to records thread for you guys. Doesn't have to be in S2000s.


SCREEN NAME
REAL NAME (if you like)
NASA VICTORIES (year and class)
TRACK RECORDS
CAR GENERAL SETUP DETAILS (if you choose, can be as detailed or as sparse as you like)
PICTURE OF YOUR CAR ON TRACK


It'd be a good resource and perspective for new NASA people.

The CR stacks up well in TTC. The way its looking, ill be in TTB most likely, if not TTA. I'm looking forward to the NASA Texas region this year. Great thread.

Removed rear interior, softtop + OEM hardtop with GT Motoring lexan.

If you are reading the specs you can see the TTC setup is sorta converging around wing, shocks, 245 A6 or a 225 A6 and some points for sways / camber joint or some boltons for power.
I've run with jason and brian and theres tenths between us realy its the most fun when you're running with similar prepped cars, nationals this year could be like spec TT s2000!

I think a 2006 Volvo S60 T-5 is the car to have for TTD and I think it could ROCK TTC if done right. My math says you could get well over 330whp on it in C trim and near 400TQ (and near enough to that, that you'd need to restrict it in D trim). So don't write the volvo off. If I can find one cheap enough I'll build it.


TTA/PTA S2000 Yet to win anything in it. Much to slow for TTA/PTA hoping the K24 will fix that.

Did win a championship in TTC in a Mini, but this is an S2000 board.
