GM Performance Parts LSX Shootout - Thank You!

I just wanted to take the time to give a big thank you to my sponsers and my team. If it wasn't for them my car would have been sold. As some may have seen at last years Shootout.
ERL Performance for building an awesome block and going over and above for me.
ALL PRO heads for building some killer heads very quickly.
Wiseco Pistons for rushing things thru for a racer in need.
Kurt Urban Performance for creating some amazing parts, building a hell of a motor, and technical support that I couldn't do without.

Then theres my team who wanted me to stick with it and helps get the car turned around between passes. And my GF who also helps... didn't mind me living in the garage for a year.

Thanks again! :hail:

Congrats Again Bro. You definatley earned it.

Man, I really wish I could have stayed over for elimination rounds on Monday. I dont see how you guys stay focused after so many hours at the track. Completely exhausted, I headed home Sunday afternoon, and you guys ended up having to carry over into Monday! Anyway, I was rooting for you guys from home. Thankfully, Mark was keeping me updated each round with what was going on.

With the struggles you've endured over the last couple of seasons, you definitely deserved this one! Congratulations on the big win! Cant wait to catch up with you guys again next season!

Congrats Mike on the win and I'm glad you stayed with it and kept the car to work the bugs out after last year. You guys have a really good team and work well together to keep all 3 cars going. I wish we could have stayed to see the finals.

Awesome job there Mike and awsome sponsors

Congrats again good buddy, you definetly deserved it, glad to see things going your way for once!! Now lets turn it up and get some 30's!!!:rock:

Congrats Mike and crew.

Thanks for giving me the chance to test my new parts! Thanks for the trailer with heat during the weekend also and for not beating me up for costing you your true street shot. You deserve this for all that you have endured over the last few seasons.

Kurt

Mike,
What can I say, it was definitely your turn. I can say you guys have been the absolute best to work with. Keep up the good work and we look forward to another great season working with the Ohio Boys. Congrats Mike!!!!!!!

It really sucked looking at your tail lights but you definitely deserved it! I'm glad your car is running good beacuse I'm tired of being Dr. Phil, lol.

In addition, I would have not lined up against you in the finals if it wasn't for the help and advice you have given me over the past two years, thanks again buddy!

If we can all keep our junk together, the 3 car team is going to be hard to beat in 2010!

Mark

It sucks losing 1st round at any race but especially the biggest of the year for us!! I was really pissed about losing but deep inside i was so glad Mike advanced and moved on to win the thing! Mikes been through enough shit the last 2 years with the car and his health to make the average person shoot themselves,but he keeps on keeping on!!

Sean you really need to update the times on that banner!!!

Mike you are the hard luck hero of 2009 for sure. I wasn't sure if you'd be racing again. Congrats.

Man, you guys have an awesome team of cars and its great to see how you all work together and support each other! Thats the way it should be. Congrats on the win:drive: I have always enjoyed watching your cars and hangin out in the pits and will be pulling for you guys again in '10

congrats mike, didnt get to talk to you and always mean to but i'm really glad you got the big win this year.

Big congrats mike your "street" car is amazing. And after this year and last you deserve it for sure. But we need to talk about when I get my block since I loosened marks exhaust like you asked(haha). Seriously though it was a good year and I am glad to see all of you guys doing so well. Mike ran his personal best and best mph. Steve won some races and set his personal best for et and mph as well, and Mark set his personal bests with his car. So all in all it was a good year for the ohio boys.

congrats to you all.

P.S thanks for the cinammon roll.

Congrats Mike.

Nice win Mike - thanks for sticking with the car and fixing your issues.

I remember the first passes you made at Kil Kare with that car. How the nose popped up so high you said you couldn't see.

It was fun following "THE OHIO BOYS" 2009 season, and progress. From Michigan to Ky with a few stops in between. Jake and I saw a bunch of good racing, thanks! Look forward to the same thing happening in 2010.

Thanks - Jake & Rick
