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!
Nice reply Eddie. Hopefully you'll be back at one of these roll-on events as I'm looking forward to taking a shot at your Porsche (as I'm sure a couple others who weren't able to make it). Enjoy your time being the one who'll be hunted....

Momentum BMW and Victory Health Care were major sponsors of the Texas Invitational. Momentum provided those hats (I wasn't a driver at this event, so not sure if it was included in this year's driver's bag) but I have one of those hats as well. It says Momentum BMW on the back.

Stage 3 car just isn't enough at this event. I had a lot of fun. My car ran very well. Trapped in the low 170's several times with a 174.xx being the best.


I beat BHT so the weekend was a success.

Nice! Good for you Eric. Based on what I've seen here...seem like you need to be able to run 180ish to be remotely competitive...
