Great story, sounds like you already have a back up plan for when the LT1 block lets go. We had a x275, 10k to win radial race here in the DFW last weekend, low 4.70s won it.

I completely get the snowball effect, started with just buying heads..ha. Good luck this season, keep us in the loop.

Congrats. That was an awesome write up. It's nice to see them recognize someone with little time and doesn't even own an automotive related shop.

Just a regular guy kickin asssssss!!!!!

Hey Stefan. Just read the article and I remember seeing that beast at the shootout make some passes and it was awesome. I happened to see where you work and told my gf, idk if it was your idea for the TEX-MEX egg rolls but she told me to tell you, PLEASE don't change them hahahahaha

Looking forward to seeing some videos of the beast going down the track
