Thanks for the advice. Only have 1 event near here. I don't foresee any extended high rpm's as it's a fairly small course, usually about a minute in length. If you search YouTube for Caro-vettes will give you an idea of how it is laid out. With my 87 it's a bit long to stay in 1st the entire course. I think with it some 3.07 gears would help quite a bit with second gear. I've run it in BSP and kept swapping first and second place with a Saturn Sky Red line turbo. He was on stickier tires than my Sumitomo's. Running the ZR-1 in BS which right now also has my buddy's 93 and some Honda 2000's and Subaru STI entered. I'm running NT555's on the back and Pilot Sports on the front. I don't plan on getting deep into the autocross but for me just learning how it feels and what its limits are without killing too many cones is the definition of a really fun weekend!
