Way to go Dude!
totally bad a$$ you guys are kickin BUTT!:thumbs: |
Congrats man!! What is the exact tire you are running? I can't find any 315 Mt's anywhere in 16 inch.

Congrats Mike I knew you would get that 8sec ET. I've been bustin you up for a while to try and make it happen, I guess it worked. I'm looking forward to meeting you (and letting you buy me a drink) at PRI in a few weeks. :D Hey would you mind if I put your 8sec video up on our website? :cool:

Congrats Mike! :cheers:
It's been a long road for you. I hope you can sit back and simply enjoy the car now. After all, what more could you want from a street car? I think Brent had the right idea when he bought a fully built, turn key race car and trailer for the track. If you want anymore than what you have now, you might want to consider doing the same. Although, I can't see how you could. 8 seconds is INSANE no matter who you are. The fact that you are doing it with a true street car just makes it more amazing. Props to you and Cartek for reaching all the goals that were set.....and then some.:thumbs: |
Wow Mike impressive pass no doubt, congrats. The thing is with a 1.37 60'er it seemed so damn smooth; that car is really set-up and took the power perfect. I also would like to host your video on my site, even though it's an N2O site i will add a turbo video section because the pass is such an accomplishment for a 100% true street/strip car. I knew you would get an 8.xx pass, but you have tore into the 8's and certainly more left. :thumbs:

I'm new to the vettes but not new to the track- those numbers and that vid speak volumes!
running 8s on a car you DROVE to the track is VERY RARELY seen and it's such a beautiful sight when you see it :thumbs: Congrats to you and everyone who had a hand in your success and frame that timeslip:thumbs: |

Julio , I have huge respect for you as a tuner/engine builder and as a friend , thanks for all you have done for me over the past 8 years , we've had some great times together , it's days like today that make this sometimes frustrating hobby worth it , you are tops in your line of work . I have to say I think today tops the feeling I got when we were the first All-Motor IRS C5 in the nines four years ago . Thanks again to you , Roy , Mike , Julian , Max and Tim . You guys are a great team , and you have big things ahead of you . We have to have a little sit down this winter and see where we want to go from here . ;) :D
Julio BTW, here are the time slips. http://www.cartek.net/images/stealth887.jpg |
Freaking Incredble achievement Mike just OUTSTANDING and I feel your excitement bro and am happy for you! :cheers: :cheers:
GREAT JOB, incredible machine and did it with the tires you run on the street is very, very :cool: :cool:!!!! Simply amazing that you were able to achieve this on Drag Radials (MTs I assume) that were hooking you better than slickes. Really speaks volumes on those drag radials and the fact you drove it to the track and drove it back home is truely priceless and the true test of your beast being a true street/strip car! |
Congrats for smashing into the 8s with a street driven Vette, never thought I would see that out of a daily driver:thumbs::thumbs:

Thanks to all of you guys for the props , the past 2-1/2 years have been rough for me , 3 surgeries , loss of a job , house etc , I didn't have the funds to put the car on kill and go after my goal , but the last few months have been great , good things are happening for me , and I got that 8-second slip , now it's time to regroup and set the bar higher .
Thanks for your support . :cheers: :thumbs: |
