i jus went to fun ford weekend at New Hampshire dragway, my 4th year going and it was awesome. the cars were crazy and lots of show cars, even seen one of them new Ford GT's. Had a great time. Anyone else at the show today?




B.T.W- how much HP does it take to do a 10 sec. 1/4 mile?

 

10 seconds is relative to the gearing of the vehicle. I have seen a 89 notch run 10.98 with 4.10 gears, and ive seen a 95 GT run 10.02 with 3.55 gears

the notch has 650hp, and the 95 gt is up around 800

 

I was there and it was great.My favorite part was true street.My freind Kraig got to test out his Keene Belle blower on his Saleen and ran a nice 11.7 first time down the track. Today it is raining or I would go back,It is the best weekend of the year up here

 

If I'm not mistaken, there was no show today anyway. When i got tehre yesterday, i heard them say that they were canceling SUnday's events and doing everything on saturday instead.

 

Yeah they did cancel Sunday.Bummer

 

They had fun ford weekend at englishtown, nj last year and it poured both days!!!

 

I was there. I parked my car in the show right next to my friends tubbed 69 notch with 671 blower and no hood. Needless to say my stock 85 gt didn't get much attention. But I was sure glad the 69 actually made it there, even though it's uncomplete and came on a trailer. We have been working on it for years. It was the first time it's seen daylight in quite a while. We spent most of the day walking around and watching the racing. I was a little dissapointed there weren't more full on drag cars, even though I do enjoy seeing street cars run. If I had got there earlier, I probably would have raced myself.
