All in all, it was a fun day and Dee ran the event very well. I'd also like to mention that Ash was a great guy!

Really BIG thanks go out to Tony M. of BAMS Automotive, who helped to make my build possible. He is meticulous in his work and really knows his stuff, from big blocks to Z builds. Thanks man!!!
