Michigan International Speedway is a pretty cool place, and the Ridetech gang showed up in force and filled the pits with A LOT of Ridetech equipped stuff. Both house cars and customer cars went to the top of the heap during this past weekend’s Optima’s Search for the Ultimate Street Car event near Detroit. Specifics are below, but lets just say there were a few times where the Ridetech guys should have just stayed standing up there.
And do you remember those new Corvette bushings we announced last week? Well those things must kick ass because the GTS Class was dominated by Corvettes, and the podium was ALL Ridetech Equipped. Special kudos go out to Randy Johnson who debuted his brand new Corvette this weekend to lots of praise, but a few new car “adjustments”. All the other competitors should be afraid of this Ridetech Equipped, D&Z Customs built machine though because even learning the car and fixing some small things had Randy finishing in the #3 position overall behind “Bad” Brad Yonkers and Jim “I’ve already won Optima once!” McKamey. The truth is that he may have taken the overall win at several of our other events in the last year.
Overall it was a great weekend, and we have full results right here at BangShiftAPEX as well, just click the link below.
