I was pitted next to an A/SA new Mustang run by a man who owns a company that works on a lot of those new Mustangs. JDM performance.

His car was very nice....all black and a 5.0 engine...

He went 9.77 I believe on one run....

I assume this was a 4 valve dual overhead cam engine but that is just from looking at the valve covers and front of the engine....and the intake is more of a tunnel ram with a throttle body.....a big one....LOL

That man was Jim D'Amore who owns JDM performance and is one of the nicest guys that you will ever meet.

Superfan,

I looked for you on Saturday up by where you were parked. I have something for you, call the shop and ask for my son Jim Jr 732-780-0770. Give him your address and he will ship it to you. I think you'll really like it! I will be out of town for the next few days.

I had the chance to talk to Don a couple of years ago at Indy. A great guy who almost always runs it out the back door, whether his he's heading for the wall, heading for the center line, spinning the tires, or on the back bumper. I love watching that car go down the track!

Don has always had one of the fastest CJs in the country, and this record is well deserved. You can tell his team has worked hard on that combination - even though the negativity crowd will try to convince me that nobody with a new car ever does any work on their car - I'm certainly impressed!

The first time that I spoke to Don was at the Charlotte National Event in 2009, and we have spoken countless times since then. I agree 100% with everything that you said. He and his team work hard and run harder!
