Yellow94GT- I agree, the "top dog" list should only count if you still run the car. Lets get a discussion going on this. What about a expiration date of 1 or 2 years. If you ran the time more than one or two years ago, then you can't be on the top dog list?

Quick 88LX- Everyone on that list is a board member. That's not saying much.... almost all current owners of fast local mustangs are members of this web site.

So a two year time frame and the car still has to be owned and in use by the member. Is that agree able with everyone. If so then I need to know what cars to remove. If anyone has any updates to the lists. Please email them to me at mark@californiafords.com

So correct me if I'm wrong, but these need to be removed from the "top dog" list because they either don't own the car, aren't local times or it has been two years since they've ran the time:

trbo50
9.39

Jeff S
10.69

jmcclesk
11.107

STROKD
11.8

rob
11.8

TRY2PAZ
11.92

90GT
12.4 (this one hurts! lol )

imbroken
12.54

POONSTANG
13.67

Keep in mind that http://www.californiafords.com/fastest.htm will still be updated as normal and is seprate from the local top dog list. The local Ford top dog list is inspired by the local LS1/LT1 top dog list: http://www.norcal-ls1.net/main/bigdawgs.php

damn, somebody is in everybody's business [Wink]

[worship]

the problem with removing everybody's best time is you lose the history of things.

Then again, I guess for the street racing crowd, it keeps things honest [Razz]

I go through 3-6 cars a year. So if i tune the car run a good # then sell it. You take it off the board. My vote is no. Once you run a good # some one should HAVE to beat you to lose your spot. I agree with shade-tree you lose some history if you start removing times. What if i have 3 diffrent motors and swap them into the same car what do you do then???? [Razz] [burnout] [Confused]

The honorable shade-tree is confusing people. Here is what we're considering:

http://www.californiafords.com/fastest.htm will be ran like it always has.

http://www.californiafords.com/topdog.htm will be limited to the top 50 locals running at tracks in northern california with cars they own and those timeslips 'expire' in 2 years.

I still say to lose your spot on a who's the fastest someone should BEAT you. Not be taken off. I could care less if the pass was 10 years old and the car is in the scrap heap. By the way mark NICE job!!!!

Geez, I'm right smack in the middle (#35)...I need to do somethin' about that! LOL

Yea, I think it's kinda silly to have the same person in the top 3 spots......let's keep it to everybody's best time.

And nice job Mark! Thanks!

No, they are busy with domestic things like cleaning and cooking dinner for their boyfriends/husbands to eat when they return from the track. Now get off the internet and bake me a cake.

I think it should be runing cars that you have
it should be people in their cars also not what you ran in some one else car
they should still have the car
who care's if last year you had a car and it ran 9's
its all about what you have right now

or maybe we should have 2 lists one with current owners and their current cars and times
and anothere with a all time fastest list

just my .02

There are two lists. I've tried explaining it three times. I've posted the two links to the two different lists and still I don't think people get it [Confused] I know many members here have trouble with the english language, but luckily they've stayed out of the drag racing forum.

Maybe someone else can try to explain?

i actually agree with sawson on this, i think this new list that was just made should be an up to date list of the fastest current cars on CAFORDS. They still have a list of every car and every engine combo with everyone's runs, no matter who made the run, no matter how long ago, and no matter how many parts were stripped from the car and sold to TEAM SOLO during it's destruction.

This new list should be more of a reference of the fastest running current cars so people from like norcal ls1 can come look at it and see who would be a good race for them. No point in calling someone out that ran 10s 5 years ago and now owns a toyota.

Sawson, you might want to take off 79-93 5.0+ N/A 12 93lx342 11.79 118.7 1.88, that car is gone forever.

out of all the current cars 5th WOOOOOOO.

Mark, it doesn't really matter but i forgot to give some info. The 11.51 was with quick time pros at sears and the 12.61 was on bfg drag radials at sears.

Shade-Tree, how much does your car weigh? I noticed you and I have the same 60' and you're a mile an hour slower but a tenth quicker.
