I have a 99 Fixed roof coupe FRC (hardtop)..grandpa to the z06. Z51, 6speed, 3.42. These are sort or rare as most are coupes and convertibles. FRC's are lighter and stiffer due to the fixed roof. I do SCCA autcross, but roadracing is the real deal!
I try to go to road Atlanta at least 6 times a year. its much more epensve than Auto-x. Its about $300.00/day, but you get 4 30 minute sessions in traffic, on a real road course. I hit speeds of about 135 or so. You sign your life away and no insurance will cover you out there!
Auto X is fun and cheap and I hit them as fillers between track days. They are low risk as its mostly done in parking lots and if you spin out, you hit a cone, no another car or a wall!
here is me (black) behind a new Z06 (yellow)....
