Want to thank a few people.... Most people do not know what it takes to get a car together, KEEP IT TOGETHER, and get down the track without a glitch. First night out with the new set-up and we are already in the 1.2X 60ft's, and running 5.XX et's on BS incomplete shakedown runs. Sorry to disappoint all you guys at the starting line and not make a full pass, my driving skills are a little rusty plus, this lil' beater is a bit more aggressive than any other I have driven. I just wanted to thank all of those that helped out and made it a successful night.
Rob ("MRI-TEK") Thanks to you we finally have some good video to study!
Josh ("GoldRust") Glad to have you there to keep an eye on the F.A.S.T.
Nick K (" ") I think you got the N2o tune up down cuz!
Steven ("Worm Boy") Thanks for the staging help. I'd say we left straight!
Edgar ("vette") Umm, THANKS FOR LETTING ME DRIVE THIS BEAST!!
Larry ("PaiN") Thanks for all your help and support. You ready to make a pass?
Roy ("BadBoy4Life") We gonna have some fun in S.A. Thanks man!
Ruth Anne ("Momma") Thanks for the fuel/nitrous!

That's cool that you publicly recognize these efforts. It is a lot of hard work to get it all to come together and I'm glad it's going ya'lls way. That's what it's all about ...racers helping racers. I'm sure everyone involved got that fuzzy feeling inside after watching the first pass knowing that it's just the beginning of something BIG.
Congrats to all of you. I hope to see ya'll at the track soon.

Edgar i am sure you are still jumping up and down.. But there is a problem.. Posting track videos from HMP of LS1 cars built by Mike was started by me. I'm going to have to ask you to stop .. NOW! 
Congrats, this day has been long awaited by everyone.
Mike I fully do understand what it takes to keep a car together. I'm glad you got this thing going I'm VERY impressed that its going some 1.2x 60s on the first pass. One day I will be back out, not sure. Its hard with 4 of us, and only 1 really knowing the actual f-body. So its going to be awhile... Got boxes full of parts.. and a car full of nothing except for some nitrous wiring.

Congrats Mike and all those who help get the car down the track.... 
these cars like Icons, Big Rick, Worm, Etc... It takes a good group of guys to make sure everything is right.

A Mike it was fun watching the Bad Black Formula make some passes. 
That thing is going to be a crowd pleaser in San Antonio on Nov 12. for the F-Body Shootout. You going to go for the all out fastest F-body N2O car. I might enter the 10.5 index and see what happens, or bump it up and see what this stock bottom end LS1 can do before the new motor goes in. When we go to SA you can at least try out the chute for the first time.

I would like to thank one more person that made this beast go consistant 1.2x's , and that would be Richard ( SARGE ). He got the suspension right where it needed to be , and the car performed flawless. Thanks alot for the suspension tuning Sarge.
