Wow, I remember Sean Ivey from my old DSM days. Great dude, super nice. I'm glad to see him doing well in the GTR business.

Good luck out there.

Excellent words of wisdom - I (and I suspect Nick) will be hanging back for a bit to see how traction appears before running or running hard. That said, watching some of the CRAZY powerful cars while making our decision will be a welcome scouting event for me. When I'm not running, I'll be recording to be shared with you all. When running, I think I'll have a stand in videographer, plus roll bar go pro (so you can see how shi.t.t.y I drive) and maybe some outside gopro.

I've not met/spoken to Sean, but Joel here (Rez90) who has an ECS supercharged Z06 and a GTR has given Sean incredible praise for his work in the GTR world. I've haunted the various GTR forums and all I come upon re: Sean is incredible shop, builder and tuner. I'm super stoked to see his Alpha car run. If the track is there, I wouldn't be surprised to see 160+ mph in the 1/4 from some of these AWD cars.

It was 10+ years ago when Sean and I would chat online all the time. Flew out to Ohio a few times and hung out at the DSM shootout with him. Was just surprised. Small world. A name I haven't seen in 7-8 years and I click on a link and there he is. The performance car world is a pretty small place. He moved onto GTRs and I went to v8s.
