No B.S., I just called him to make sure Carmelo actually bought it and he did. Carmelo picked up for only 12million when it cost the former owner 20 million to build it. That house right next door closest to the gate where you have to put in the secret code to get in is his house (or should I say his moms house).....he is only 19 years old.

They do live there...I have been to his house many times and he has stored my trailer there for about 6 months when the City of Denver required me to move it.

If you have been in that house before you should know the persons last name was Johnson and was a CEO or something for Qwest.

Now I'm not disagreeing that buying a STI seems pretty dumb when you have that kind of money but you should know better then pulling the BS flag on ***** F'n Mike B!

Remember dyno #'s don't mean much. Steve would dyno over 600 at MAC or on any other dynojet, Corrected #'s.

True....but the build on this car should run 9's. I guess we will just have to wait and see. Until then Steve is the one to beat.....just don't think it will last long.

Yeah shouldn't be too hard to do if someone really wanted to. Steves car still ran what it did on pump gas 91, and is a street car in every sense. Thats where I have to give respect, 10's on car that drives to the strip, road course, drives home, and has even been on longer trips to other states when it was a little slower. I think he blew it up at trick or treat drags though, maybe he'll go bigger with the new build.

the previous owner of my FD pulled a 11.37 @ 128 at sea level, after this winter we can hope I can do about the same in the FD up at this altitude. Does anyone know who has the fastest v8 FD in colorado?

MichaelB145

I think probably you do then....not sure what MDoes car will run. I'm pretty sure his car has never been to the track yet. Without any additional mods...I'm guessing your car would run a low 12 at Bandimere. Look forward to seeing what you bring out next year!

HAHAHAHAHA 19yo and his moms house. Well that explains it. His mom paid for everything done to his car? Well what is this kids name? I might know him through someone else besides you.

Also: You referred to him as a "guy" not a "kid" in your post. By that I assumed he worked for a living and wasn't just bankrolled by his mom. Thats why I pulled the bs flag.

subiedude03

yeah we will see what I can't get done over the winter, my car isn't running right now but with slicks and a new tune it should be interesting.

MichaelB145

I would refer anyone 17 and younger a kid. ****....I would have never left home if I grew up in the house they have. BTW....I don't think living at home at age 19 is bad.......now 25....yea....that's bad. I didn't move out of my parents house until I was 20.....but thats when I bought my house. I didn't waste any money renting like most would.
