A BIG TxMile Thanks......please read.

I wanted to take a minute to say "Thank You" to all those who helped me get a wonderful performing car put together so I could enjoy a great weekend down in Goliad. I ran a 195.8 and couldn't be happier (unless it was 4.2 mph faster )
Here goes:

Terry Lawell (Lawell Motorsports) - for being a great mechanic and a better friend all these years - Luv ya man!

Marek Kalinowski (Markski - 911 Tuning) - for all his patience and for helping me make the right choices (even when I didn't want to listen). You are one of the best sources for information that money can't buy.

Michael Bailey - for being so friendly and helping at a time when I wasn't sure what direction i needed to go. I appreciate the honesty and for putting up with all my (other) questions getting the car ready for this past weekend. I also apologize for not finding you in time to shake your hand and introduce myself before you left!

Plus Tial, Protomotive, Vivid, and Evoms for some great parts.....as well as Jay and Shannon Matus and staff for another awesome event....and of course all you 6speeder's who make this forum what it is.

Most of all, though, I have to thank the Lord who gave me the life I now have at a time when I was at my lowest. I owe him the glory as I am just along for the ride.

Thanks again everyone.

And before I forget (again) I want to thank my wife whose patience knows no bounds (except once a month ) and my kids who make the best crew in the world!

I'll probably go with a flow-thru MAF and another fuel pump at some point....and maybe get to 200mph!!
