Nice consistant times!!

You raised the bar pretty high, but we have a few months of reasonable weather to go after it before you get back out again...

I've got a few more boltons left to put on, and a with some cooler weather and better tires, who knows...

Congrats again!!

I'm still having trouble comprehending how a fully optioned/full weight (still on full size front wheels/tires and with the passenger seat still in it) bolt ons only LS2 C6 is running these kind of astounding numbers but I was there to witness it and I know the car very well so it is confirmed...car is pure speed. Cartek tuning and parts selection/installation shine through yet again.
Congrats again Dennis.
