Congrats man! Bittersweet, but I'll bet you'll be back in the game sooner than later.

By reading the title I was kinda expecting the story to end with hitting the wall or something like that.

Congrats on the new best.

Thanks Mike. The guy is from Michigan, but I forget the exact city. He said he has a built LS2 motor waiting to go in. The car is setup right, so hopefully he has as good of luck with it as I did. Between you beating on the 10 bolt, as well as me, I thought it would have broke several months ago. She's still holding strong though, and the numbers speak for themselves!!!

Congrats Matt. I was hoping to see the car in action before you sold it. Good luck in the future. Vince
