Nice going KID.

What happened in the second session? Nobody there to line you up or did you just CHOKE under pressure (or on a blueberry pop-tart)? The final race of first session was awesome. Wayne is a great driver and you held your own

Congrats to Wayne as well! Nice way to make some waves on the Corvette Challenge racing scene $14,000 my final offer

I guess it looks like the "Kid" is learning how to race

Hopefully he won't try to rev that motor to 12,000 RPM.. and will keep it full of Oil, & water...

Last.. I hope he keeps an eye on the tranny fluid... If I think of anything else I'll post it ASAP

All kidding aside Chris it was long over due.. & you earned it !!

Let me start by saying all you 10.00 guys KICKASS...Man that was some awsome racing tonight..A tight field and every race was a tough round... Hats off to David Shen a great driver and a real class act.. Nice Job Mr. Conway cutting some nice lights there late in the rounds,And congrats on the runnerup.... And Wayne that was a great final,Your car is awsome.... Paul in the semi's I lost to Dave We were almost identical out of the hole.. when I shifted third I got loose in the right lane and went to put my FAT arm back on the wheel and hit the shifter and through it back to second..And that was it...
I want to thank My uncle Ralphie for building me a bad *** Mill.. And Paul T(slowRvette) for Tunning the beast and everything else he does for me.. My boy Leo (NEVERLIFT)..Edgar Perez, Cartek for backing us.. And all you guys that helped me at the track PaulZ, TSAB, Hartmann, Tommy,....
IT WAS A LONG DAY.....

Looks like you got the car dialed in. Now you've got to get yourself dialed in.
