just wanted to thank Oz and all the people who made speedfest happen. it was something special. i have been at many events and this was the 1st i attended where ever one was cool. most of the time when the competition heats up people say and do things they shouldn't and it did not happen there. i would like to thank Josh from HOP and Chis (Trojan) for all the help with our car so far. we were not close to getting the car done and still was able to take 1ST place in LX 6.1 N/A Modified/street tires. cant wait till this Saturday when the car should be really close to done and really see what it will do. i am most thankful that i was able to have my son with me when i made the passes. he is hooked for life! the smile on his face and the enthusiasm he now has for the car and drag racing is priceless. and thank you all for this forum. i have never been into forums or chat until this car.
And a BIG thanks to you, Jim, for your help cleaning up our area at El Toro this morning. Much appreciated, buddy! :thumb3:
Most people really don't know what a great job Jim did. Along with all the cone collecting and trash pickup he helped me with, I put him to work with the only brush I had with me (toothbrush) and water (Arrowhead) to scrub off ALL the unsightly tire marks we left. I wanted to make a really good impression on the facility management. Jim needed just a BIT of encouragement from time to time, and expressed his frustration at one point .... ...but it was totally worth it. Jim did a fantastic job. That feeling of great accomplishment is written all over his face. Many thanks, mate!
