how some of u guys go 2 the SAME car show 4 2 and even 3 days is somethin i dont understand. now in the span of 1mth ur gonna do 2 carisle car shows, 4-6 days total.
people realize....FX03 IS NOT all 3 days, its a bunch of people showin up as a group on SUNDAY 4 it. this is the all ford carisle event. and yes it will b a ticket fest...nowhere near as bad as the compact show.
w/all ford-FX nearing, y so many of u decided 2 go 2 the compact show, c'g in most cases cars u make fun of everyday. instead u could have come down 2 all ford/svt day at 75-80 dragway and run ur car (if u wanted) all day 4 20bux and even get into a class(s) if u wanted and run 4 money/trophy/prizes....and yes if u didnt wanna run, there was a car show as well.
but NO, i had 2 look at an absolutely pathetic representation of foci there...even the svtoa officials mentioned it. at most we had 6 cars runnin, 1 showin (sheehy ford car). by lunchtime we had 2-3 cars left, an hr later i was by myself. i had 2 go and tell the track officers 2 cancel the focus shootout b/c i was the only 1 left. thus i was left 2 pester GTs/others all day.
i dont have anythin against show, but we need 2 get these cars out on the tracks in ur area (whatever discipline). b/c sadly, i'm gettin a lotta poor excuses on y people dont even wanna try and run. meanwhile they make their car look cool and fast....sorry but fast sittin still, but like ur wheels, ur in the 18s in the 1/4...thats not somethin 2 'show'.
its a bear tryin 2 get some1 else 2 go w/u (by urself is not fun at all, regardless of situation), and it continues 2 get harder. idk y many of u out there duck runnin ur car ever (some of those seem 2 only do it on the street and that pisses me even more). all this dont wanna b laughed at, feel outta place, wont go fast, bs is just that...u'll get more respect 4 runnin and tryin and improvin from the any1 that matters than not tryin at all or doin it illegal.
many of u guys r quick enuff 2 give GTs a big fuss in the 1/4, or vipers and minis in 'X, or even bmw's at the road course.
well enuff of that...pt b'g, let get these foci out 2 the track (whichever) more often and get more people into it b/c of it and thus further appreciate the car 4 what it is.
