    After our super successful testing with Leroys new engine from Pete at @realgoodatdoinstuff900 we had to go back out and see if we could finally get that 6 second run. We also took neighbor out to see if we could get him in the 9's!

Not only that but running a 9.82 in Neighbor, with Gearge remembering Ed. This whole episode was a emotional roller-coaster, and honestly had me teary eyed in a couple spots. I was sitting here on my phone, watching and cheering you on as if i was actually there. You and the team deserved this Cleetus.

    Would've been so damn funny if they handed him his 7.01 slip before handing him the 6.92 slip. Awesome to be watching since you bought the car. Has come a LONG way. Awesome job everyone.

    wait...i live alone....who are these people??? DOESNT MATTER THEY CHEERED TOO! WE ALL ARE HAVING A GREAT TIME!!!
    Seriously though, you made history. through every setback, every problem, you persevered. people doubted you FOR DAYS. "thatll never go 7s, thatll never go 6s". But you held you head high, laughed it off and did your own thing and PROVED THEM WRONG. youre winning cleet, and its amazing to watch!
