JMcCain8 Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 I just want to extend the thanks to everyone he listed here along with you Eric. I dont know how we would have wound up without getting that radiator from you. So thank you. Jesse and John, thanks for all the hard work and help you two did to get me out there this weekend. Much appreciated. Also, Bill and TJ, thank you guys for coming over and helping friday night while I had to work late. Without all the help you guys did in as little time as yall were there it was more than helpful. Brad Waddups, Thank you for attempting to find a radiator for me and driving all the way to the bluff to do it. Sorry about the rear window in your truck though. Last and definately not least. MOM and DAD. Without my mom giving up the garage I dont know where we would have been able to do all this. All the work and dedication from my dad these last 3 weeks is amazing. I dont know how he does it, but somehow gets it done. Without you I wouldnt have a car. I know I didnt get to do all that much with school and work, but I tried as hard as I could to do everything you told me to do. Without you I would be no where in my short racing career and I cant thank you enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ks2290 Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 I appreciate the credit guys but I didn't do much just there to keep mike from Falling over and what little I did was way worth watching josh come from the back to the front and with a little luck he would have won that race so congrats to josh and mike for not only building a car in a short time but a fast one at that and hopefully now u can rest mike cause u need it.
