Congrats to irish007
 

So now we all have even more reason to badger irish007 with technical questions...

Wanted to offer a big congrats. Competed last week at Aston Martin's Top Gun event in Irvine, where they bring the top 5 techs in North America together and put them through a rigorous series of tests. Based on actual real-life problems that other technicians worldwide have encountered. In some cases taking 6 months of diagnosis to solve, and being identified in 45 minutes by these top techs.

Our boy irish007 came out on top!!!! I'll be the first to say a big congratulations to him from the 6speed family :) WELL DONE!!!

Awesome, CONGRATS! Where can we send a congratulatory bottle?

Congrats! We are a lucky bunch, having him on the board :)

Not surprised after years of seeing the level of knowledge and support he has offered us here. My buddy (and tech) Craig Newton won it last year. Congrats! Well deserved.

Craig has a great rep too!

Congrats Irish--We are so fortunate to have you volunteer your time to help us "Aston Gear-heads" on this board.

Congrats! We're lucky indeed.

Very Nice indeed! We are lucky to have you around here

Huge congrats!

I'm not a mechanical person (wish I was more so) but I read everything Irish07 posts because it is so informative and accessible to even mechanical idiots like myself. He's a huge asset to this community.

Definetely a tribute worth noting! Excellent job!

Congratulation Irish, you already got my bottle ;)

Awesome, Chris! Some well deserved recognition for your talents from Aston! But it goes well beyond that, as many have pointed out above... hopefully someone at Aston checks in here occasionally, because they will then understand that you are an invaluable ambassador for the brand.

Thanx guys!!!

I'm still shocked I took the win.. It wasn't easy at all. Either way, long story short.. BOO-YAH!!!!

Fantastic job!
Wish you worked in SoCal!

Outstanding job. I know from being in the industry, these tests are extremely difficult. This is like winning the Super Bowl - Congratulations!
