This was just a stunning performance. So many nay-sayers went home in shock and awe! If I am not mistaken, the car still has its stock internals! Just think about that for a second guys.

Congratulations Betim, Joey, Jared and Art.

Thanks again for all the props. The guys at BBi really need a big plause for all the dedication. All I did was to drive it, anyone could have done this. Thanks.

congrats on the times. are you allowed to disclose what's been done to the car? are you (and bbi) confident it will hold up w/ stock internals?

Thanks again for all the kind words guys. This should hold up good power and a reliable one for the stock internals. This has not even been maxed out yet. More to come.

Can't imagine those #'s for a long while, takes a lot to build that kind of monster.

Thanks brotha, I used to race bikes before. We just finished working on the race clutch. Betim made a nice GT Cup style stopper so I could shift less than 10th of a second, better than paddle shifts.
