Default Anyone have the video of the C4 Vette w/ the turbo

There was a video of a red C4 vetter with a monster turbo making a few 1/8 mile passes. It sound like a jet engine spooling at the line.

That's Lee Howey's car.400 SBC with a 106mm thumper.Last time I saw him at the track he was running high 7.3's@188 mph.That car is part of the reason I'm doing my current build.

Thats the car! I forgot the guys name, thats it Lee Howey.

Want to laugh, he also the same reason that I am my current build too! When we're both done, we have to line them up Roofer Dave!

That video doesn't work for me. Anyone else have the video?

Link on Streetfire works now.

Must have accidently rejected it. We get lots of BS and **** and don't put anything under recent uploads until it's been approved.

Sorry about that!

My phone (and dsl) was down yesterday so I didn't even know. I was wondering why it took so long the other night when I logged off and it still wasn't up.

What tire? That's a decent ET but the mph is way off for a 400" 106mm combo.

That video is old and he has went faster.I saw the car last year at the King of Columbus race at National Trails he had a 32/16 on the car.At one point he was winning races all over the midwest but lately Mustangs have been giving him grief.
I'm going to Trails next weekend and he'll probably be there.I'll chat with him and get more current info.

Mike I'm sure we'll get to line them up and some point.I won't be ready for Commerce but plan on competing in all the races from now on.I was at W2W yesterday and the Silver Bullet is coming along real nicely.

I'll definitely be ready for the EastSide Shootout in Maryland in September. That will be a good race to line up. That track is FAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
