Thats a pretty safe bet, ya think!

I would love to go to something like this and run the wagon.
I would get my teeth kicked in, but it would be fun to see everyones ideas.

Only if none of the power adder modulars from the NMRA fail to show up (which is likely because there is no prize money and they have that stupid "no decals, no lettering" rule).

This is just another Jeff Smith-esque scam to promote the LS.

And when the DOHC Ford Coyotes and SOHC Boss become widely available to Car Crafters, the LS fans better look out.

Speedzter, for your sake I hope the Coyote engine meets some expectation, because the Mod motor looked good on paper too ;) I'm of the opinion, "I'll believe it when I see it."

Ford brand loyalists... the guy who will STILL buy a diesel from Ford. Just wait for the ignore function.

As a matter of fact, I do own a PowerStroke Diesel for pulling my hauler. ;D And the 2011 6.7 liter "Scorpion" PSD is going to be a killer 'plant. http://www.dieselpowermag.com/featur...uty/index.html

As to the catty "ignore" comment . . . if Bowtie Bangshifters want a "Chevy only" experience, there are plenty of places to find that.

I, for one, think that Bangshifting ought to be more interesting and diverse than a typical NSRA fairgrounds show (where 90% seem to follow the worn path of slapping a crate (or JY) SBC into an over-priced cruiser, covering it with mostly useless bling and a cliche "hot rod" paint scheme, and calling it good. Yawn. Zzzz)

And I remember back when brand rivalries were something that we celebrated instead of ignored.

Why bother to run the CC event if we're just going to award the prize in a popularity contest?

with a off road road coarse across the street from the top end of the drag strip at speed world - if that wind is blowing right out there in the desert, it could turn the top end into a skating rink, sounds like good times to me

I don't think I'd ever use an Ignore button, but I definately wouldn't ignore Speedzter even though I disagree with his fordly views ;D And he writes in sentences I can easily read!
