Default Re: Focus Challenge @ Buttonwillow Results!

Well the white car is now sold by our store for under 40k new. Complete with a track day to get the owner going on driving and learning all the ways he can adjust on the car. As far as I know we are the only Ford store in the US doing anything like it.

BTW look for Chris Cook to be driving that car at the time attack in December. The car will also have a new 5.0 ltr 3V motor that is estimated at 425hp. (You will be able to read about it in Modified Mustangs about Febuary) I believe he will be able to bust the 2:00 mark, (I ran 2:04 with a theory of 2:01) and establish the car as the fastest Normal asperated time attack Street class car in the US as well.

We are hoping for rice for lunch on 12-3

Its very hard for me to visualize you stressed. You always so happy, perhaps because we are always doing what we love to do when I see you
