Kyle, want to ride of there together? I am meeting my dad up there Saturday. I hope it doesn't rain, showing 50% right now. If anyone goes regularly, you'll know that there is a big chance of rain every year for this event, lol. Can't wait to hear the turbo's on the PRO cars ;D

Ill be lucky if I can get me one or at least have the guys working the show walk me (most likely this method, i will be using)

the ECONOMY BLOWS!!!! I still have an engine that is going in so Sunday might be the day I make an appearance, unless I get done earlier than expected.

I took a picture of this a few years ago while working the show.

So...did you let her?

Post by: Matt on March 24, 2009, 11:10:03 AM
No, she said you had to hurry home to her son Jimmy who drives a white XJ and lives deep in the Macongo, to take him a little boy she found at the show.   :D

That is going to make this event blow even more than inviting other brands. :o

Title: Re: Fun Ford Weekend
Post by: Jimmy on March 25, 2009, 04:41:49 PM
No. You can't race if the tracks wet, and only a few show cars will show up.
