Super Stock Honda SS/DX incredible

Nice article.
When we talked before I thought you were running a FWD. Thats why I thought it would never be competitive in the class. If I was 10 years younger (and $20,000 richer) I'd turn my motor around and run SS/FS. If I go over 125 MPH I have to be in a commercial jet. LOL
Your car really is impressive. I never thought a 4 cylinder would run with the V6 buick.
If you work on the first 330' It will fly.
But you have to get to a points meet or another race and lower your average. You already have tripped the trigger to get your index hit. You are in complete control of it. You don't want to wind up like Scott Kelly. He has a great car but a stupid fast index.

Art, you could always switch to a Skyline all wheel drive w/turbo straight six.

What ever happened to that Challenger convertible that you used to run, ever think of getting another one?

with a 25.5 cage, you'd have to be the size of a Jockey (or Snooki) to get in that thing. Got any pics of the interior?

Last I heard the Challenger convertible was in a garage in Staten Island NY.
Every now and then. I dream about racing another Challenger. Then I wake up all sweaty
Stock has changed so much I would never build another one. People have talked about racing a car with all factory parts. Well my Spirit was one of those cars and a bunch of those on here gripped about it. It was Okay to massaged a set of heads run square cams, and valve springs that could double for coil overs. To improve air flow.
But when I upped the boost pressure a bit. It should have been called cheating.
I'm perfectly happy with what I'm running now just over 300 runs on my gas ported rings and pistons. Doing a rering, bearings, and a new cam. I'll be set for another 3 years.

Carey is one of the coolest and kindest guys your ever going to meet trust me i know first hand. Congrats on all your accomplishments to date including that seven second pass in Indy and article which is way awesome. I firmly believe that if you surround yourself with greatness like MR2 Performance (Mike Roth) and AEM skies the limit and you Carey are a prime example of that good luck with all future endeavours from your biggest Canadian fan!

It's a bit of squeeze to get in and out of it. But there is actually a decent amount of room inside of it. I have a full size 17.5" kirky in it.

Here is an in-car vid (kind of dark, sorry) but you get the idea.



Here is the best picture I could find. Please excuse me, this picture doesn't have the recently upgraded, beautiful rich mahogany steering wheel in it.

Congrats on a very nice piece of equipment.
