EDR thanks to those using our engines in 2009!
Well I'll have a long winded end of year for all clubs thank you and year end report...maybe even a joke or two...but today i just wanted to take a second to THANK all those that chose to have EDR build your race engines for OMRRA, WMRRA, AFM, AMA, SM and WERA events.

Yesterday i was working on our 2010 race programs/pricing/sponsorship/structure today and going back over my notes from the engine room it appears in the last "engine year" (that is the last year of racing since last summer...so summer-summer) we have done 61 race engines!...that's 61 engines in about 1 full year! WAY more than we ever did before in our 11+ year history! No wonder i get no sleep

DAMN that's a LOT of race engines for one guy. THANK GOD i have a great crew for all the pulling and putting em in the chassis's!

The last year we had/have OVER 129 EDR Built engines CURRENTLY competing in AMA, AFM, OMRRA, WMRRA and WERA.(some built in 2008, 2007 and some even longer ago!!) We have had an amazing track record of reliability in less than 4% of engine failures! (there are F1 teams that would kill for that!) of that, 2 were just dropped valves from fatigue/wear....so ill take those numbers ANY DAY of the week!

Wanna thank the following folks for their support in the last year from EDR Performance and for choosing me to be their engine builder. Please note, these are just engine builds, not all our racers/supported riders! (thats the end of year thank you!)

EDR is finishing up our 2010 Race Support and Engine Program and will continue to be the ONLY shop on the West Coast that attends almost EVERY round of every event! (we only missed 2 wmrra events this year for family conflicts) We pride ourselves on being the ONLY shop with a crew that you see AT the track to help our riders out! No other shop supports as many riders, events, races as EDR has and will continue to do so in 2010!

We have some new riders coming on board in 2010 and will announce them when time is right. Stay tuned.

So, to those below, THANK YOU for picking EDR Performance to be your engine builder/tuner! 16 years of building race engines and still growing strong thanks to hard work, dedication and your guys/gals support!

Site sponsorship would be nice if you're going to advertise.
After all...there are many of us here that have a business, and can not advertise.

This isnt an ad. its a THANK YOU to our customers. I didnt post our prices. Besides this is ME posting, signed by MY name, under my ED WHO login. Its not EDR PERFORMANCE or BUY THIS or CHECK OUT OUR PRICES. Those are ads. This is me, Eric thanking the above racers. I dont even have a link in my signature and will even erase our shop info in the above just to make ya happier.

you guys are WAY too uptight at times. Relax, its motorcycles and racing and the internet..supposed to be fun.

We posted our thanks on over 12 forums since many of the above/our customers are on various forums, so we wanted to be sure they got thanked. This is the first in 2 days and 12 forums that anyone has remotely said a word about "ads" its NOT!

Jeesh.. just wanted to thank some folks, that all.

Have a good day.

no reason other than the owner is VERY private and doesn't like being mentioned, out of respect for him i xxx'd it out.

he isn't a racer, does only 2fast and Nesba trackdays.

Settle down. Take the tin foil hat off Jrod, a 165rwhp 750 would NOT be too hard to spot in a SS type of race.

Eric's a great guy in real life, he can just come off as a little excited on the forums.

A lot of us have history with the .WS crowd, and it gets messy at times.

Eric, personally, has helped me many times, and though drama does follow him, it's not how he is in person.
