Thumbs up Another CARTEK C5 in the 9s
Well it is barely 9's but it made it on the first run with NOS. John’s car has a 427 with MDS sleeving, and a 200 shot of NOS. The car is a 2001 ZO6 converted to an A4. There is a lot more left in it. John ran the car at Capitol Raceway on Sunday.



Here is the dyno sheet.
