Pretty cool to be mentioned in an article with some of these other drivers/cars.

I'd like to mention and thank a few people that without their help we wouldn't of been able to get this thing down the track this season.

Can't wait for the 2013 season to begin!

You deserve the credit for a great run, got to see your car at Indy and I was very impressed. Think the run is right up there with Gove's run in his Daytona from the prior year and Westcott's record AH run from the year before (which I also got to see). I'll never be able to see a Honda S2000 again without thinking about your car. Good luck running the car next year!

Who couldn't have a secret Man-Crush on your car Carey! When the trend is to have cars that take the driver out of the equation, you make a small car, turbo with a stick look easy when it isn't! I am glad others noticed. If you have not seen the car up close, it is a work of art! Good Luck in 2013!

I was parked next to him at Indy. Kinda smiled to myself when I saw the chute on the back. That was until I heard him make a pass. Dang! Very impressive! Nice guy too.

Carey, you deserve all of the accolades and publicity. I attend Indy every year and your car was the highlight of the 2012 race. I hope to see you again in 2013!

Thanks for the kind words guys!

Carey, your car is amazing !!! I'd love to see it run in person !!!! Do you have any in-car video YET !?!?!?

boostedf22c · 12-31-2012, 12:23 AM

Thanks

I don't have any of the really fast passes in-car but here is a 8.13 pass from Route 66. They started to all look the same so I stopped in car videoing.

Sorry it's a bit dark
