Drag Racing Tech - My own Shootout Post

Wow I can't believe all the threads!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I just wanted to thank everyone for coming out and their support. Next year is gonna be bigger and better!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> I guess you can say that "No Problem Raceway" HOOKS!!!!

It was great to meet the few people that I did. I was pretty occupied most of the day Saturday so I didn't get to meet as many people as I wanting too. I meet the guys from MI, Priscilla (great racing girl), George C.(awesome car), Pro Stock John (briefly), Nine Ball (good talking to you again and that car is bad to the bone), Madman and crew (good to finally meet you, that car is a rocket), and a few other that I can't remember in my still tired state of mind.

Again that's to everyone that came out. Hope to see all of yall, and many more, back next year.

Paul - The Shootout was great. I had lot's of fun and so did all of the guy's that came down with me from Michigan. There is no doubt that we will be attending the next Shootout that you guy's put on. I would also like to say that Diamond Pistons was glad to help out and we can step up our sponsorship for the next event, just let me know when you are going to have it.

Thanks again,

Hey dude, I have you in both of the photos I bought from that photographer. One burnout pic, one launch pic with the wheels up. I'll bet from where you were standing you had more pics taken of yourself than anyone else LOL!

Good seeing and talking with you as usual. Did I get the award for most passes made or what? hahaha

Chris: Next years event is already under way this morning. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Thanks for coming down and Diamonds support and I'll let you know the detail when thay are available.

Tony: Yeah I guess you are right about the pics. I had a fun day. I think you or Coach would be a tight race for the most passes run. He even ran Friday night. I can tell you that I'm very impressed with your car. Driving it down, changing tires, racing as many rounds as you did, and driving it back home in one piece took a lot of confidence and balls. My hat's off to you.

Hey since I'm in the picture you think I can get another autographed pic again. The other one you sent me is still hang above my desk. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I guess that's a good sign though Paul...the whole event was simply AWESOME. <img border="0" title="" alt="" src="gr_grin.gif" /> It was a pleasure to meet you and the rest of the Thunder Racing crew. BIG TIME THANKS to you, Angie, Geoff, Jessica, Jason, Tim, etc, and I know the Coach's wife also helped out too...basically [b]EVERYONE who made this event possible deserves a big congrats. It was fun, well organized, and definitely worth the 993.9 mile drive on skinnies. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> I have to give a special thanks to Jessica too, for helping me get through the staging lanes so quickly. I know I couldn't have run the 2 classes I was running without her help. Getting in and out of the lanes for back to back classes wasn't easy. Thanks Jessica! <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Tony - I think I may have you beat you in the most passes made category. I have over 20 something timeslips. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />
