I want to start by giving all the glory to the Lord Jesus Christ. This was a great accomplishment for me in my career. I want to thank my sponsors FP Turbos, Drive Shaft Shop, DR CamShaft, and GT Guard. Also, I want to thank those who helped out to make all this happen: Thanks Tim, Angel, George, and all the fans and friends that were at the event. Thanks to those who helped me cool down the car for the last round. It meant a lot to me to receive all your support. Sorry for not remembering all your names. Thanks to all the people at the event for believing in me, to all those from the 6 Speed forum that I met there, and big thanks to the event promoters. It was one of the best races I ever participated. This accomplishment is not mine, it goes to all of those who supported me.
Sorry it has taken me so long to post. I have been very tired with the trip and trying to catch up with work. I can’t believe what just happened. I am getting calls from all part of the country and abroad congratulating me and it just hasn’t sunken yetJ
FP Turbos: Thanks to Rob who put a lot of time and effort sharing data back and forth. As a result, we were able to come up with a perfect combination.
GT Guard: I want to thank Mat for the diff and gears. They still are holding up LOL
Drive Shaft Shop: Special thanks to Frank for the axels. They are unbreakable!
DR CamShaft: Thanks for the cams. We went back and forth so many times trying to find and making the right selection but I think we got it this time!!
TurboWax: Thanks for making my car flow through the win smooooothly.
Haltech: Thanks for the upgrade and for sending me the computer on time!
ICS: George, men!!! Thanks a lot for helping contributing financially for the trip and for parts.
Tim (HBK): Thanks men for all your support! It was a pleasure and the most fun I had on a road trip. It means a lot to me to reunite after so many years.
Angel (TNT): I had a blast with you! Thanks for cheering me up, praying with me, and helping me out with everything with the car, calling friends, keeping people posted, etc. You are always on point!!
Rentech and Steve: Thanks for your advice with the aero dynamics of the car. Hopefully we could work on improving it.
To Mullet, Joetwin, and all the guys from 6speed, you guys were a gentlemen and it was a pleasure to meet all of you. Sorry I am very bad with names.
Underground Racing: It was exciting and fun to race with you. As Kevin said at the steak house, they’re all fast!

Can't wait for him to be back at the 1/4 mile laying down a 8 second run!
Tell him to put some Ballast in the front end

I had no part in this and I'm excited. It certainly is infectious and the pride is palletable. Congratulations Eddie. As for Mike, you're one big dude!

Congrats to Bello! Big props to him and his crew for making the trip and running that crazy fast little Porsche.

Thanks to Kevin, KC, John and the crew at Underground for providing support to all of us Underground lambo owners that made the event. I think a total of 8 Underground Gallardos ran over the two day.

Also like to thank Amar and the crew for putting on this event and allowing me to run the slowest lambo against some crazy fast competition. My Stage 3 car qualified 14th in KOTS. Just proves the old adage "there's always a faster car".

absolutely looks like top notch competition out there. UGR set the bar high and from what i can tell they did a great job supporting their cars at the event. it was awesome to see one of our own set the bar even higher in an aircooler. hope i will be able to make one of these events !
