Nice job!!

Bob

Thanks!

The TCS in the ECUGN worked beautifully. 4.4s 0-60 in a bumpy parking lot on 35 series tires.

Next is to figure out launch control and tie it all together.

Awesome work there - big effort and very impressive results.
Huge Congrats!

I'd say you deserve to take the winter off

Thanks for posting that photo

Yeah, those were all three SEMA booth cars that got Golden Tickets. The Station Wagon was a Pontiac B-body with a Lingenfelter LS motor and a T56, and it was a hoot to watch on the road course. The Jeep was a Dan Howe creation drive by Dan himself using a Schwartz chassis, and the Dodge truck was cool too.

Well done Andrew...Both you and your Dad should be really happy with the outcome from this road trip. Did you have the car cam recording your exit during SEMA Ignited? Maybe laugh about Leno's grin and thumbs up as you reminisce at Thanksgiving dinner.

I wish I had the camera running, but sadly no.
