Hey I think its awesome!!!! You finally got in the 10's Just think of the days you were the guy (like me) thinking you could never get a decent 60 ft time out of this car... You obviously show it can be done!!!(I guess I'll have to practice & do some more to my car). Again in the 10's with a tank close to 5,000 lbs congratulations. I can't wait to see the video. Someone needs to drive cross country in the fall and visit the east coast to see what the car can really do. Come on guys show some love for the CL65!!!

thanks jody. i would love to run my car at mir with -1000ft da. that would be very interesting

richard, dr's & better da you have a 10 sec ride for sure. i told you what you should do next. i think it will be a very fast car. wouldnt be awesome if all us mid 10-11 sec cars met up at 1 track to see who actually is the fastest??!!
