Was looking forward to being able to hit up 3 in the general area next year once I move; now I haven't even got that to look forward to...sigh :(

You guys better make sure I know where the big Mustang shows are, then! :hi:

After this past year I could tell FFW was going down. I like NMRA better anyway, bigger car counts, faster cars.

FFW has been on a downward spiral. We will make sure you know where the big stang events are in the area.:yes1: There is talk of the NMRA coming to the new Zmax Dragway next year already.

So how long before you make it down to Ft Mill? I live right near Ft Mill in NC.

They did the all-brands racing up in NH last year. It wasn't too huge, it was OK. I think the racing is good to have spread out like that.

I don't know what the South offers for Ford shows but up here the big ones are very few and far between. This was the best one and show attendance never took a hit.

Looking to be Jan/Feb sometime, unless my girl or I are given too good of an offer in order to get us down sooner :)

Nope, getting scary close now. Both of us are awaiting responses from some promising interviews. Once I hear back I'll be able to see if I can make my current company jump to keep me. I'd prefer that of course ;)

Passed by a Sunoco in Ft Mill on my way home this afternoon, 87 was $1.92 a gallon.

Will be nice to have another SEFB member close by.

The bad I see in having no FFW is the events become to big and it is hard to manage. We used to go to the FFW at Bristol but it had become so big you couldn't get in enough test passes to be ready for racing, just to many cars.

Hopefully NMRA will run their events better.

That was an estimate.:yes1: Plus truthfully, I have slowed my driving down on the highway. I know if I really tried, I could make it in an hour.:3gears:
