Hmmm, should that apostrophe be there?<br><br>Anyway, Wildcat Diesel Performance is 1 year old this November! Its been an incredible year for us, with explosive growth that we didn't imagine in our wildest dreams. We've met alot of good people, haven't destroyed any trucks ;D, and had alot of fun this year.<br><br>So to all our patrons, our vendors, to the Diesel Truck Resource and Jack Thorpe, a BIG thank you for making this year so incredible. We couldn't have done it without you.<br><br>Rod

Shucks, whenever I've bought something from Wildcat, it seems like you've been in business for decades -- must be that friendly, coooOOOOooool and competent business persona you project. :) Hope you make a million! <br><br>GP

I didn't know you were a startup company. That's fantastic. They say the first 7 years are always (no wait, that's a marriage, sorry). Good luck in the next 20 years. May you have many franchise'es spin off. Proud to be one of your many customers. I foresee many more chances for you to dip into my too shallow wallet. [laugh] [laugh]<br><br>~Dave

Congratulation's Rod. They say that the first 2 years of a business are the toughest. Glad your first one was great and here's to an even better second year. ;)<br><br>CR

As Rod's first customer (hey, the original invoices didn't even say Wildcat right buddy?) I gotta give him a big thumbs-up. You've made a pretty big splash in your first year-hopefully the successive years get better and better!<br><br>The Alberta Research Department!

Hey Rod, good job. When I saw the title of this thread I thought maybe you where referring to another one of those animals on the farm.<br>So I started another one elsewhere. Whoops.<br><br>Folks, have a look at the site. ;D<br>

<br>As Rod's first customer (hey, the original invoices didn't even say Wildcat right buddy?)<br><br>&lt;chuckle&gt; Thats right too, I forgot about that. I didn't even have the Wildcat name yet. ;D<br><br>A little chunk of history: Jason was my first customer, but he was also the guy who first told me about Edge, and some of the other early BOMBing parts for the 24 valve truck. So Wildcat is really his fault... ;D<br><br>Rod
