Nice run ..

Ive met Leonard a couple times at events over the years. Of all the people I have met in Racing he is the LAST that would post something just for grins.

I didnt make it to Houston to see the run ( I was in Cabo ) but if Leonard say it happened then it happened.

Leonard if you have the slip and want help posting a digital pic of it let me know.

someone on here actually said what everyone was thinking. Give the owner the keys and lets see a 10 sec truck. Nothing against JDM....... Jim is obviously a good driver, but what good is it if the owner cant do it? Get over it cheerleaders.

Lets see the best you guys can do with replys now. Pissing contest begins.........now
Whats the difference about who was driving the truck?? The truck did a 10.9 period. You say nothing against JDM... then why make a reply like you did Once Leonard adjusts to the truck im pretty sure he'll get a 10 sec run... Congrats on your 10.9 run Leonard .

Leonard and his brother David stayed with me for a week while we put the motor and roll cage in his truck. We tuned Davids 03 Cobra, finished up at 11 ol**** at night and they drove straight through back to Texas so Leonard could meet obligations with his work. As for FFW Houston Leonards been in the State Bass Tournament for the last 30 years. It happened to fall on the same weekend. So his brother dropped the truck off to me at Strictly Performance so I could tune it for the Race setup for that weekends race. I actually went 10.90s twice with the truck. Leonard has been awesome taking his place when we where in Texas him and his brother David are the nicest people you ever want to meet.

As usual some of the board members here started to beat up a good man which is down right rude. Leonard and alot of other people are hesitant to post anything positive here including myself I dont even announce new products or things that will help protect our trucks better. It just aint worth the aggrivation.

wasnt beating up JDM..........as a matter of fact i'm in love with them. You guys have great senses of humour. No one else found it odd to post something that happened 5 months ago?

I have a JDM built truck that will run 10's all day long!!! In fact it has ran 10's on only 12psi!!!

I'm happy with it!!! I can drive it on vacation and it will run circles around all but 3 or 4 Gen2 Lightnings.

Now I can put a face to the name.

I had the pleasure meeting both these gentlemen. Iam real happy for you Leonard.
But enough about a 10 sec Lightning, "How where the fish biting?"

Jim it is sad. Sue & I think the world of Leonad & Linda and as you know a couple of weekends ago when you called me we were with them relaxing and enjoy ourselves.

As I mentioned in an earlier post Leonard does not get on the boards much but does read what goes on... and then this crap
