Default Thanks to Tempest Racing, and others

Just wanted to extend my gratitude to several worthy people/teams:

To Tempest Racing, Joe for the great tune up, Jeff for the help and hospitality, not to forget the fireworks show Friday night, and Jenny for the photos. Also for using their shop to do some maintainance on the car Friday night
Vance aka Newt Dog for the help in the pits and video action.
Team CSI for giving my crew some pointers that they really appreciated
Jason aka Blown90Hatch for all the support back home. Without him my tuneup wouldn't have been as close. He has also given me some great pointers
Rob at RS Akimoto for his support in the past few weeks
The staff of the NDRA. This weekend was run very close to schedule, everything went pretty well I believe.
The staff at MIR for the facility prep.

Thanks again
If I left anyone out I apolgize.

Jimmy you know that you and your crew are always welcome whenever you are in town, just as long as you fill our fridge with beer again

I'm glad that we could be a part of your first (five) 9 second passes, Joe never fails to amaze me with his tuning. Your car has a lot more in it once you get more seat time with the new power, and get a good boost controller on the car :cough: NLR :cough:

We are proud to have our stickers on your car, and we cannot wait to see the times drop more and more as you get all the small stuff worked out.

I was scared, Chad was wearing a girls shirt, lol. Part of your sticker melted into the paint from the header heat. It looks pretty cool with the texture feel.

Sorry man, I didn't mean to rip anyone. Those were some great burgers. I like the taste of the Pomengranite Rock Star. You are one cool guy. Hope we can do it again in E town.

Jimmy...im glad i could help you out. me and everybody else around was as excited as could be to watch you go from a mid 10 second car to a 9.4 pass...on your first pass with the new power. lets not forget you went 9.XX every pass the whole weekend

and chad. dont be gay. you scared me at dinner haha let me make a pass in your car at Etown and put that thing back on a dyno and actually turn the boost up. let me know if you want to come down here and get it all sorted out. you have the parts, now put them to use!
