I was very impressed with how the event went off. The weather most likely kept some cars from attending but the turnout was good.
Tony , it was great to meet you and your crew . This was a fantastic start of hopefully many more to come LT1 events . Total grassroots effort unlike the GM Factory support that the LS1's received. Maybe now they will see that the LT1 is worthy of some support too.
Thanks to all the people that showed for the event it was a blast ,I wish that things had been finished sooner on my part and could have brought my car . Oh well there's always next year.
Big Thanks to all who put this together!
PS You Texans are CRAZY!

Hey guys....I just want to reiterate what Tony said. We had a BLAST this weekend. The event was GREAT & I don't think it could have gone any better than it did.
I really wanted to thank YOU GUYS, the LT1 family!!!! You guys were AWESOME. Some people drove upwards of 1000 miles one way to get there & that's what makes this event special. With out you guys we have no event.
So keep working, the event will be a go next year for sure. Once we get all the details Ironed out everyone will be informed.
Thanks again guys for ONE HELL OF A 1ST EVENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want to thank Tony and everyone else who helped make this happen. It sounds like it was a great time that I missed. I did not get to go this year because of family reason's but will be there next year. My only request is that we can have it a little lated in the year so us northern guys can get in some track time before the event.

Sounds like you guys put on a great event. With the mag coverage and a year to spread the word it can't help but grow. Actually..like Z8s said. For a grass roots effort you guys had about 50 percent turnout compaired to a factory backed and heavily promoted LSx shootout(months of full page mag ads.). Great job guys. Can't wait to be able to race in it next year.

I had a freakin blast. I been to the track before but it was the first time I ever ran a bracket. It was very interesting and whole lot of fun.
Thanks to everyone who busted their *** to make this happen and to all the bad *** cars that showed up.
Would love to do it again next year.

Yeah I for one want to apologize for not being able to attend. I was unable to resolve my loss of 2nd gear prior to having to trailer out there to KC (From california it's quite a haul) I stayed up till 2AM with my transmission guy while he attempted to convince me that UPS will not deliver parts at 3AM. I did have the car finished and dynoed albeit I don't think it was completely optimized but oh well..... I would have loved to compete cause I think i had the NA guys covered
either way I am sad for not being able to attend but it gives me time to work out all the gremlins i'm surely going to experience the next few months.... Plus by next year I'll be running the biggest shot the motor can take and feel comfortable doing so....
I'm glad you guys had a great time and helping out organize the classes was fun. can't wait till next year. Let's try and have it closer to the west coast this time..
