Ya we tried to get every run we could before the end of the season. There is one more race this weekend and that will be it for Bandimere. Unfortunately we can't be there, were getting ready to go Elk hunting.
6667fan, good luck on your last TNT. Go straight, fast, and safe.
mbrunson427, I hope your right and the new Bandimere is on the way.

Well as you probably guessed we didn't get to the track this season. Everybody on the race team just had to much going on. For me my son got married and that took a lot of time and all of our race car money. I did get the seat belt recertified. So now it's so late in the season, we decided to  skip racing this year. There some updates we want do to the car any way. So we will get those done over the winter. Hopefully we will be faster and safer next year.
I would like to thank everybody that is following our racing adventures. It is really fun racing an FE powered race car. Most people haven't got a clue what an FE is, until they see it run a low 11 N/A.
We are working on another FE power race car ( 67 Cougar ) with a stroked 427 side oiler. That one is a few years away.
I hope everybody has a great winter!!!
See next year!!

Well we finally got the Mustang back down to the shop. We know it's late in the season, but hopefully we can make a few test and tune before they shut the track down for the season. Hopefully we won't found any big problems with the car. It fired right up after sitting in the trailer for two years and it sounds really good. The track that we are going to run the car at is around 300' lower in elevation, so maybe we can shave another tenth or two off our times.
Well that's it for now.

Where do you plan on testing? I'm close with our car and need to get it out to either Julesburg or Pueblo.

It will probably be Pueblo. I would love to go to Julesburg, but it won't be this year. Pueblo is only around an hour and half from my new house. I will let you know when were headed to the track. I would love to see your car run.
Take care.
