Re: Attention Ford Sportsman Racers
Ford is really stepping out there for sportsman racers this year. It is great to see. I think it will positively affect all sportsman racers in the end as the other brands get on the bandwagon. I sense some posts on here reek of envy...understandable, but I think both Dodge and Chevy will have their turns as this plays out.
BTW, I think Neff's funny car is Ford powered.

Re: Attention Ford Sportsman Racers
Neff's car is powered by a real close copy of a Chrysler Hemi, assembled by Ford as per the NHRA rule book. They had no choice, thanks to NHRA's "Ingenuity inaction" slogan....
You thought maybe it was a 427 'cammer, or a Shotgun motor????  Get real....

Re: Attention Ford Sportsman Racers
Thats pretty cool that they are doing this, although I'd say its as much a Tasca deal as it is a Ford deal imho. And I can't speak for Dodge, but I seriously doubt you'll see Chevrolet in drag racing for a long time. I hate to be a debbie downer but this Government task force will run the company right into bankruptsy and ultimately oblivion. The government would never survive in the real business world. They don't know how to run a business, but they have the endless influx of taxpayers money to bail them out. I think the US automakers are doomed and I'll be surprised if any of the big 3 are still around in 5 years...
