    I just wanted to extend my sincere gratitude to Jeff for his help with our program this past weekend in Denver. We are a young team trying to get competitive in a tough TAFC class. Jeff is truly a class act and helped me greatly to reassure me that we are moving in the right direction.

    Jeff came out as a consultant, and to start seeing the differences between a clutch car and a converter car

    He will be available to use as a sounding board for ideas we want to try. Since our car is torque converter driven (I am the manufacturer of the Quick Drive converter drive unit), there are differences in how you run the car as compared to a clutch car. Jeff believes, as do I, that there is a very positive future for converter driven cars in Top Alcohol. While he is quite involved in the national points battle with John Lombardo's TAFC, he would like to see the technology advance for the converter cars. We are using our operation as a test bed to continue the development of converter equipped cars, and Jeff's knowledge and experience can be extremely valuable to us in a consulting capacity.

    Jeff really is a class guy. We feel that he is very underrated as a top alky tuner. :)
