Congratulations. Awesome car!

Forgot to mention how much I love blue vettes!!

Wow - got to watch you go down the track from the other lane. Caution - objects viewed through your front windsheild get a lot smaller fast!!!

Congratulations Angelo! Glad to see that C3 take a win. We now have 2 Pro 8 wins by C3's this year. That's also 2 wins this year from NO2 big block combinations.

Default Thanks

We always have a great time ,even when we break.The win was great. The best part is seeing the people and Pro-8 drivers who show up,and make it an event. It was great that Paul Z. showed up to keep it goin',congrats to mitchell bros. on the 7s, it would have been great if he didnt break, i'll still take the win I can't believe I cut a better light , it felt great...I can say thanks for all the help from my CREW ;bro. Joe--- Vinny--- Mat---JR---little Ang--Willie for chassis tune, Extra thanks, Paul and Eddie Major, I would have been out w/o the tires and Eddies help, thanks to all. Edagar thanks....
