Scary thing is,9's are "slow" for the fast cars in OC. There have been numerous low8/high 7 sec cars on the street. Dunno how some of em do it,but they have been there.

Our friend Sal has driven his 7 second Viper TT down in OCMD. However it doesn't have OD so it gets trailered down there.

The guys on SVTP love this car. Here's a GIF they made:

Haven't seen a pissing match like this in along time.

Simple facts. Car went fast and owner gave credit to who he wanted.

The way I see it, if there is a problem where credit is due,have the other shop rep. come in and bitch.Not someone not associated with the place.

Just let it go.

Good luck on reaching your goals , any car with an overdrive trans and IRS running 8's is super impressive to me , you guys made a wise choice going with the RPM 4L80E conversion , I love mine and plan on pushing it a little harder this year .

Do you guys at least have a roll bar in that beast ?

haha no roll bar. I dont think were even goin to do one bc its a street car and doing a 6 point is pointless. We are thinking of just building a 2010 camaro into a drag radial car.

Wow.... I can't believe I read all that just to find the damn video!!!!!!!!!! Congrats Rickybobby.... shes come a LONG way since when we first met down at cecil. I still regret not taking you up on running your car that one nite at cecil. Actually I think that was the nite we were looking for your clutch master cylinder cap lol! Guess we wont have that problem anymore now will we. Once again congrats to everyone on a amazing car.

Hell I didnt know you couldnt put a roll bar in one. Doesnt wolf make bolt in ones or something that legal till 10.00's? Atleast it something to help right?

Other shops love to dis-credit Cartek at every chance they can. Then say, "Aww I'm not taking anything away from Cartek, I'm just sayin"...

No it just pisses me off when someone is trying to give cartek credit for something they had nothing to do with. I have never said anything negative about cartek so think what you want.

very impressive car for sure!!!!! the no roll cage thing ****'s me off tho!!! ever seen what happens to a car going that fast and crashing? you guys are running tires that that car could over power very easy and no roll cage. very bad racer habbits. i hope he has no wife or kids to leave behind. again, great job on the car, but your safty habbits make me sick. life is nothing to screw around with. if i built that car street car or not untill it had the propor safety equipment i wouldnt alow the car down the track. i would talk the owner into doing the right thing. very sad
