I want to give a huge shout out to my transmission sponsor Ranch Performance Transaxles. Sam and Mike have been a loyal sponsor of my race program for over 10 years. Mike Herbert is one of my dearest friends and always goes above and beyond to help me at the track and also my transmissions.
To all of those out there who have sponsors or looking for one. Take care of them like they take care of us. Stay loyal to them and Promote them. Sponsors wouldn’t help us if they did not love this hobby and want it to grow and succeed.

I want to personally thank everyone who came by the PDP booth at Bug In today. I enjoyed talking to all of you very much.
This was my first show to exhibit and sell products and I had a blast! My wife and best friend Amy Guelker Downs helped me all day long and only yelled at me twice! LOL
Congrats to Adam Kotke of Seward Speed Shop for winning the Empi Engine Builder Shootout yesterday. I’ve known Adam for a lot of years and I’m so happy for him.
See everyone soon with the PDP Pro stock VW at Texas vs the world in September!
