Oh Baby!: The Most Incredible Runs of the 2012 season
 

Pretty cool to be mentioned in an article with some of these other drivers/cars.

I'd like to mention and thank a few people that without their help we wouldn't of been able to get this thing down the track this season.

Can't wait for the 2013 season to begin!

You deserve the credit for a great run, got to see your car at Indy and I was very impressed. Think the run is right up there with Gove's run in his Daytona from the prior year and Westcott's record AH run from the year before (which I also got to see). I'll never be able to see a Honda S2000 again without thinking about your car. Good luck running the car next year!

Who couldn't have a secret Man-Crush on your car Carey! When the trend is to have cars that take the driver out of the equation, you make a small car, turbo with a stick look easy when it isn't! I am glad others noticed. If you have not seen the car up close, it is a work of art! Good Luck in 2013!

I was parked next to him at Indy. Kinda smiled to myself when I saw the chute on the back. That was until I heard him make a pass. Dang! Very impressive! Nice guy too.

Carey, you deserve all of the accolades and publicity. I attend Indy every year and your car was the highlight of the 2012 race. I hope to see you again in 2013!

Thanks for the kind words guys!

Carey, your car is amazing !!! I'd love to see it run in person !!!! Do you have any in-car video YET !?!?!?

Re: Oh Baby!: The Most Incredible Runs of the 2012 season
 

Thanks

I don't have any of the really fast passes in-car but here is a 8.13 pass from Route 66. They started to all look the same so I stopped in car videoing.

Sorry it's a bit dark

Found a great in-depth interview with Carey here:

^^^that was the first event we went to with the car. I don't miss those "shakedown" runs at all. :)

Carey and crew showed up at Lyons Raceway Park one day for a little test and tune during the regular bracket program. Most of us didn't know who they were when they got there. We sure knew em' before the night was over! Driving that car is strictly a mans game! Great guys by the way.;)

Re: Oh Baby!: The Most Incredible Runs of the 2012 season
 

Wow! Lots of press this season! Only an 88mm turbo, impressive! Good luck this year Carey!

Re: Oh Baby!: The Most Incredible Runs of the 2012 season
 

Thanks.. Actually it's an 80mm turbo, that's a misprint.

Tommy, thanks. If you guys on here haven't been to Lyons, you need too. It's the smoothest racing surface that I have been on, and it ALWAYS hooks. Great owners/workers at the track that love what they do and it shows! You don't get (div.3) track of the year 3 years in row by accident. :)
