Remember now, Ford is a four letter word. Kinda like those other words you tend to say when they Dont put a dot on your windshield at the track.

Hey Mike, gotta have a lil fun with you guys while I am over here, but you are right for now. Will be fun when I get the mods done...trying to do a lil on each and I should just concentrate on one at a time and get it done...

Got full lenght SF's coming for the Term, in preps for some more HP.
Almost lost to civic in the FOCI, so now I want to blow it or something....


just cant do all three at the same time..

Remember when Biggins left his truck at someones house for patrol and the dudes wife was bitchin because there was a big ball sack hanging from it

Track opens first part of March...

Just to confirm what I think the dot means. Cars running on boost correct? It finally clicked when I took my TA out there with the GTP and they dot'd the GTP but left the TA and my dads Fiero alone.

Still a track newbie!

Or when alot of you had to be trailored home by us non-breaking down chebby guys. But I guess it gave some of you, while driving marks car, a glimpse of what a fast car is like.

Pure numbers ain't gonna cut it for your team this year.

A dot on the windshield means you won and go on to the next round of eliminations.

And EJ, I don't remember a lot of dots on YOUR windshield last year.

Ha! My car, bone stock, N/A, ran quicker than that.

Do any of Ken's cars break the 12 second barrier?

Hhahahaha I remeber that he had the flesh colored ones. That was funny as all hell!

You should put the money into the Cobra, don't mess with The Foci, you need some sort of Ford the is possibly reliable...

BTW - Anyone get pictures of my car on Mark's trailer? C'mon, I know someone took ransom photos.

Here's a freebie. This is when the stock blower took a dive.

Started the day like this:



Soon after:









I think it was on a trailer a total of 6 trips last year. Sweet.

I'd disconnect my blower & come find you, but my car still might be too fast for anything you own.

you seem like you have a good sense of humor so I thought I'd test the waters

And I thought I had pics Tyler, but I couldn't find them a couple weeks ago. I was gonna post a For Sale thread with pics of your car on my trailer.

It was "Eaton" itself.

Heat.

Lesson learned ... never ever put ice on your blower. EVER.

It's happened to a few folks on the board. I only put ice on the blower at the track when I wasn't filling the ice box.

The metals were expanding at different rates and got closer and closer ... one day I was particularly rough on the car, was bombing down I5 racing a Porsche out of Mt. Vernon and it gave out on me in triple digits while coasting back down to 60.

Could have been more exciting, but it was the first tow home the year at 3am. Rick was riding shotgun, so he had to share the experience of being stranded on the side of the road to.

There were a few other small parts that broke, but that's another story.

He will be mad at me for this, but...
The car might, Ken can't...
