Norman Chengs car is out of hand!

Posted by hidnn.o.s. (Member # 1219) on :

I think hearing about this event is going to be the motivation that I needed to get all three of the stangs up and running well [patriot]

Posted by 98slowhoe (Member # 895) on :

the event was great! Lots of fast cars and lots of good looking ones too. Good job Cafords for the hard work out there!

Oh yeah Jim(91stanger) way to through down some good MPH 126!!!!!!!! that was Awesome!

Posted by Threesixes (Member # 1408) on :

I also wanted to thank you Sawson for all the the work you did setting this thing up. It was nice finally meeting you too. Like always, I was able to find pics of my car, thanks. It was good to see Shaun (93 Pony) again. It was nice meeting Jim (Fasterdamnit) as well. I have never met anyone from this site I didnt like. I'm looking forward to next years ford vs chevy race.

It was cool. me and my friend new no one so we just stood by the start all day long and i think the only guy we met was some v6 dude dont remember his name.

Posted by 91sleeper (Member # 779) on :

Yeah hopefully by next year my car will run in the 11's somewhere and I can help CaFords bring home the win.

nice pics.who won the event by the way

Posted by rob (Member # 50) on :

hey, i know a bunch of the guys/gals and i barely talked to anybody... I spent most of the time tirelessly videotaping the event...gotta get an s-video cable today so i can transfer then to digital format.

here's a couple shots i took with the still camera after the video camera ran out of juice.

Brian- No problem, thanks for coming out and putting on some VERY ENTERTAINING RACES as usual [Eek!]

Lilghoust - Nice meeting you. A little more work on your reaction times and you would have beat that IROC. At least you fixed your filter and got your MPH back.

hidnn.o.s. - We could have used your help. If we had 1 more 12 second or faster stang, we would have very likely won.

Threesixes - Thanks a lot. Congrats on your 11 second pass.

SlowAss01 - You should have came and introduced yourself. Virtually every Ford guy that was there is registered on this forum [Cool]

4.6GT - It was close, but NorCal-LS1 won.

rob - I never knew you were there! I think its been 3+ years since I've seen you though. You may not recognise me... lost some weigh, got rid of the goa-t, but don't worry the unique voice and laugh is still there [Big Grin]

Put the videos online in small 56K modem friendly MPEG1 files and I'll pull them onto the Californiafords.com server.... or if you can setup your box as an FTP server, I can log in and pull the vids.

Josh,
Cool meeting you. A little more practice and you will be deep into the 11's. Hopefully I can work on my hook and get into the 11 zone myself.

Rob- Thanks!

Jim,
Do you think you can fix that damn picture????

I have my screen on 1600 x 1200 and it's still too f*cking big [Roll Eyes]

Brian

Posted by st5150 (Member # 51) on :

GOT 50- you can blame 9COBRA8. He took all the track side pictures and didn't quite have the handle of the autofocus feature yet [patriot]

Glad you could make it out...what did you end up running? [burnout]

what did you run got50?

Posted by 91sleeper (Member # 779) on :

Everyone should start posting pics of ourselves with our cars so we get to know everyone. Place cars and faces to there screen names.

Posted by SlowAss01 (Member # 1848) on :

Both me and my friend are pretty shy so we didnt talk to too many people. I tried talkin to one dude eric c. but he walked away. I know jared but i didnt see him, probably because we werent standing in the lanes like it seemed everyone else was. It was still tight. That gnx witht he turbos sticking out of the hoods was insane, I wish he wouldve got one good pass off. That 7.712 that one tubed n turboed notch did was also crazy. That was fun, we plan on going out a lot more often this summer now that we know where it is and shit.

Thanks Sawson!

We all had a great time! My 5 year old son really liked it too. I was happy with my performance, even though I botched every run with bad launches, missed shifts, and mechanical problems, my fastest time was 12.5 and my slowest was 12.8, 116 to 118 mph. 60' time was a rock steady 2.0 on all runs. So with more practice I may be able to get some better times.

Great pix too! I like these:
