Congrats Vinnie

It's just like the announcer said this Weekend. "If the Italian doesn't win, "Tings" might happen" I guess they all paid attention and you came out on top

It couldn't happen to a more deserving individual. It was great to see you agian buddy. Glad you made it home safe. Later,

pg

It was a laugh as the announcer called out Vinny Taleeko over the PA.

Hey congrats again Vinn.You made JLo verry proud.All .5 lights and the truck was running like a clock,couldnt ask for anything more.Well i woulda liked to have been the guy up against you but hey still have Fords at Englishtown.
But like i said way to go Vinn.And glad to hear you got home ok.As for me,i had a little run in with a N.J. State Trooper on 287.Nothin big though just an 81 in a 65.No ticket thought,just a warning.Cant ask for anything more then that.I mean he did sight me for ubstruction of vision with the radar detector,wich didnt go off.But better then the speeding any day.Just glad he didnt see me next to the camaro,punk though he had something for me.He found out the hard way he didnt.Well hey man im happy for you man you worked for it.

I know I already gave you a big hug, but I wanna give you another congrats. When you were at my shop a week ago you said you were gonna win the event and you did. What's really cool here is that you became the fifth national event winner this year running for TeamJDM. Thank you for that! Oh, and thanks again for the pizza party, I will have Justin post some pics tomorrow.

Thanks again everybody.

It was by far my highlight of owning this truck. You can buy parts but you have to earn the win.

I appreciate all the compliments on the looks but I got to tell ya when I saw the win light on my side in the finals I was overwelmed for a minute.
I do love having that helmet on and racing.


I cannot thank Jim and Team JDM enough for there help and friendship.
Jim has given me a very consistent lightning that I have been driving to events (some times 500 miles away) racing and driving home, all w/ an 8# lower pulley.
Everybody there treats me and Teri like family and I appreciate everything they do.


If you ever have the chance to go to an FFW event, you would not be disappointed, you will meet a lot of good people and have a great time.


VINNIE

That would make life complete.



Yes, 2003 has been a very good year so far and hopefully will only get better. This month I will get my motor and KB and next month I marry the girl of my dreams and go to Hawaii for 9 days.

2 things that will make me very happy (Not hawaii, fat guys and Hawaii don't mix )
