He is not back with NHRA Sport Compact. He is with NHRA Powerade, and has been back there for a bit.

I'm just happy that Jim is back and it really does not matter which position he currently is filling. He is just a good man.

I only wish I could be there to hear James ask Austin Coil for all his data
Austin would probably rather swollow his toothpick.

Actually, James Lin has already made quite an impression on "those guys". Anyone who knows James can well imagine that it only takes a few minutes to realize he's WAY smart when it comes to engine tuning and reading data, and also has ZERO attitude. A rare combination at any level of racing, and greatly appreciated by those top level teams. We're so happy to have him here, and looking forward to his contributions.

I totally agree. James has always helped me out in the past when I was 1st building my car, and he had not even meet me yet! He is a very hard worker too.
