As a reminder about the LSX Ambassador as he wraps up the weekend with a huge BANG!

He won his class in the True Street 11.00 Index class.
He is awarded the honor of LSX Ambassador.
Now he has won the LSX Shootout Index Race with well over 110 cars entered!!!

That is what I call a sweep!

Don't forget, he also won the only LSX event held at Atco, NJ in 2008!

Edgar, thanks for keeping me posted. You have had quite a year! What a tough field to get through, all of us as an example! With all you do for Corvette drag racing you deserve your award this weekend and the win. With you getting the honors this year and Pastor Farley last year this thing is becomming a Northeast event. Y'all need to know us good ol' boys are going to practice. Take time to reflect on a great year, God Bless.
