Default Cartek's New C6

Dave and Julio called me tonight on there way home from picking up a new C6 . The car will be on the dyno tomorrow for a baseline and then the modding begins . The car may have headers and gears for the weekend and will be raced in the next few days . Then they will start R&D on heads and cam packages . A Cartek customer also went down with them and picked up a Daytona Orange C6 and will probably be doing a custom twin-turbo package on his . This should be interesting .

Hey isn't this the C5 section !

Just kidding! Congrats Julio and Dave. I can't wait to see it run Saturday. John, Paul and I have been seriously talking about getting C6s. I really think they look awesome! I am very anxious to seeing it run on the track!

Mike are you coming on Saturday? I hope you can make it, it has been a slow racing summer and I know we all could use a day of drag racing!

Bill , It's not looking good for Saturday , me and my car , have been on Martha's Vineyard all summer , I come off the island Friday , but don't feel like trailering 6 hours or more in Labor Day weekend traffic , I am itching to race , but it will be at my home track in New Hampshire . You guys have fun . I may have to come down and be a guest driver of that new C6 6-speed , and give Dave some driving lessons .
