Incredible.

I saw this car in person at the GMHTP Shootout at E-Town ~a month ago, and it is truly amazing that such a fast car can be so streetable and so reliable. You guys all have a lot to be proud of!

Thanks Joe , That event at E-town was the most fun I've ever had at that track .

My car will always be a street car , I may have to limit the overall 1/4 mile performance , but the car is waaaayyyy too much fun to drive on the street .

Mike,

Still can't believe how far that car has come! I remember when it first broke a 11.99!!

Look forward to comin' down and playin' next season with the turbo bird!

I think there were a couple more yellow lights to wait for...

Hell I'd be over-anxious to punch that throttle too!

If I'm not in a heads up race , I don't care about cutting a good or bad light , I'd rather leave early , it builds up less heat in the converter/trans .
