Where have all the Real Ford Guys/Gals gone?
By Ed Foral - 12/29/2000 11:09:44 PM; IP 205.188.197.154
I'm beginning to think that there are some pretty bored Chevy guys playing on the FE forum. This X vs Y engine stuff is pretty childish and looks bad when someone comes to this forum with a legitimate question and gets no answers because people are more interested in throwing mud with people without the guts to even post their E-Mail address.
Anyways, onto my real point.
I just got done reading the latest Musclecar Review magazine with the annual Pure Stock Musclecar Drag Race in it.
If anyone with any guts wants to prove a point, this is where to do it.
Take a "stock" car and go heads up racing to see what engine/car is the quickest.
The Ford turnout is pitiful.
It is a GM/Mopar dominated event.
I respect the Ford/Mercury guys who have shown up for the past few years, improving on their times and having a good time. What I am dissapointed is that there is no Ford running even mid 13's. All of the bragging that goes on, and the stories how this 429 or that 428 or the 427 or Boss 351 is better, have not been proven at this event.
Now not everyone has the money to make their car presentable for such an event, and other people do not want to risk their consideral money and effort put into a restoration to race it, but there must be some more out there than have been showing up.
I personally would like to see any Ford do well whether it is powered by a FE, 429, 351, etc. instead of being shown up by brand X.
So.................anyone willing to go prove a point?
