Best,

Ryan, to say we are impressed with your results this year would be a huge understatement. You have proven to the world that you are not only a great driver but that the stock 4B11 can take a BEATING. You have deserved all the good fortune that has come your way and even more in the future. We all consider you a very good friend here at AMS and we are stupid excited to see what 2010 brings for both of us. Enjoy the off season and once again WAY TO GO SPARKLE!!!!

Ya know that's an excellent point.

Nobody has pushed the X to these levels on the track other than Ryan. Lotsa prototype AMS stuff - lotsa power and in the end --> lotsa reliability.

Maybe I should sell my IX.... wait I'm already broke!

Are you guys sure the fuel issues at ACS were real? When my wideband sensor crapped out it behaved like you are describing. It showed proper AFR's at idle and medium loads, but at WOT it would shoot up to 14. I chased pumps, FPR, everything - while I was waiting on a new sensor. Then after a bunch of fuel system parts I got the new sensor and that was the problem the whole time.

Nice work though Ryan. You laid the smack down this year.

We changed the sensor 3 times, and the gauge itself once.

Ryan, youve toured the country with that Evo X of yours like no other. And from what it sounds like, youve conquered every time attack from the east to the west. If you dont start racing in a pro series next year, im going to be disappointed.

This.

With how dominant you have been in Time Attack this year, I think it is safe to say you are somewhat of a valuable commodity as a driver.

So I have to ask... What does the future hold for you? Wheel to wheel competition? Have any professional teams contacted you about a seat?
