Awesome seeing everybody. Couldn't have asked for a better time and more enjoyable weekend. Again, props to Fereday and LMR. Also props to all the racers. The Lethal crew showed up and brought it. Good job Joe, Danny, Gus. All your cars did work.

Big thanks to TSS, Amar, Hector, RC, and all others and sponsors. First class group of guys. From Hotel accommodations, to dinner, etc, everything was great. The super stretched Hummer Limo compliments of Duy and a few of us that went out in Dallas was also a blast!

Can't wait to run at the next event.
