Fords at E-Town update

[stanglx]

Unfortunately I wimped out on going to E-Town this year and kicking myself in the a$$ for it. But.....I do have some friends down there and they have given me some updates. Figured I'd share!

Ken Cook is there but I do not have any times for him yet. Carlos S. is there and he ran a 12.0? this afternoon.

Not much but that's all I got so far. I should have more tomorrow. If anybody else has any updates feel free to post them.

The track was a mess from the rain.
They had to put all new rubber down.

That's all I got for now. Sorry for the bits and pieces but it's the best I can do from my house.

Well that's all I got. My source left the track around 3:00. Maybe one of the guys that where there can post more when they get home.

While the tunrout was light, still was fun.
Carlos could have won in brackets with all those 11.82's lol
Wish I didn't have computer problems. Or a bad RT :D

Good seeing you guys again.
Now the waiting game.

[Fast Orange]

Did Carlos have the Cobra, and did Ken run the FHP car?

[KenCook]

Yes & Yes
Figured we would get few passes in for the end of the year.

Thank you my Suthan Brutha. Congrats to Jonathan on the win. I missed 4th gear trying to catch that green bullet pulling away from me like a freight train. Was a lite turnout (8 cars) but it was fun. Kenny drove the FHP coupe but we had nothing but problems with the new chip. I ran the Cobra for its last trip down the 1320 with the engine I killed. I ran it exactly as it was run in NMRA trim including spec fuel, tires and weight, I pulled the headlight out for the final at a desperate attempt to scare Paulk, his 11.48 showed that I did rattle him somewhat (darn military guys) lol. I was able to lay down some 1.57 60fts and 3 straight 11.82s @ 112 and 113 mphs respectively.
We also debuted the 3rd AAR (future) F/S car. 2006 3v GT driven and OWNED by my mechanic Carlos Florenca. We ran the car in brackets instead of F/S so he can get his feet wet and run some rounds. Car has 120 miles on it and is completely bone stock down to the tires and air filter. He started Saturday with 15.9s and finished Sunday with 13.8s. So congrats to Carlos F. for beaking out in every bracket we paid to get him in..lol

Hello All,
I would just like to say that we had a ball on Sunday! My car wasn't done but we were all hanging out. The only controversy was the headlight cappers! It was all fun !
see everybody soon,'

Thanks for the props Jonathan. Nice meeting you. It was a good day, to bad Denny broke, but that's racing.
Hopefully we'll see you next year. Maybe I'll have a little more for you.

We had a blast on sunday. Finally lost a tenth in our 60 but in the first round against Carlos, Jeremy called for second but know one was home. Thanks to Andrew Seagal for getting the event together.

[lxtoploader]

Thanks!

I know we would have had a better turnout if there wasn't a week of rain!

Expect to have FS and RS back next year.

We will change the 03-04 Cobra shoutout to include all modular power adder street cars on dots.
