2002 Pictorial year in review

What a year 2002 has been for me

First- I got engaged to a wonderful girl that I probaly do not deserve

Second - I got to meet a LOT of great Lightning owners at Events, tracks (FFW,Ford@ E-Town, L Shootout).I have done a lot of racing this year and no matter where I went I was always treated nicely by everybody.The Lightning owners are a CLASS ACT.

Third- The L. I call her Alanis because she can be a Bitch to the competition.
She went from 'Mild to Wild' this year and rewarded me with 20,000 trouble free miles, some trophies and an 11 second run or two.

2003- I cannot wait for more events to meet more people and the L has some more mods coming as well.

So please everybody have a FUN but SAFE New Year.





First day ever (late 01)at JDMs (She was still a Virgin)



Charity event at E-town



FFW Epping

You went from Virgin to Raped Ape in no time at all V.
Congrats my Friend, maybe there's hope for mine yet.
Awesome pictures, "you picture ***** you"
I can't wait to get some runs in spring of 03 with my fuel problems corrected, the 2-3 upper pulley (on top of the 4lb lower)
slicks, bars, and a few fuel related helpers I got planned coming up.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

BTW
As for my year,
I got older, balder, fatter, more body parts stopped working, my 8yr old got even more spoiled and out of control, I dumped 2 girl friends, and once again find myself glued to the computer this
winter when I cant be racing and working on my TRUE LOVE.
YES MY FRIENDS, ONCE YOU HAVE BLACK,
YOU CAN NEVER GO BACK

Great metting you and Terri at Epping this year! It was a pleasure to be the only other red GEN 2 JDM truck (far right) in that picture. Course yours looks a little cleaner cause I got stuck in the grass and made a little bit of a mess. I didn't even make it to the track surface and I already was having traction issues!!!

Hope to see you again this season and i'm planning to make a few stops to the NJ area. Happy New Year
