[QUOTE="JimIII@jdm, post: 5679739, member: 10902"] I have been attending fun ford races for the last 4-5 years. This past year was my first year competitivly racing in the series. I ran street stang and was able to finish in 3rd place for the year. I had a great time, got to meet some of the guys in my class and develope alot of good friendships. We (JDM Engineering) have been sponsoring the Tough Truck Class for going ony 6 years i believe. My father has participated, helped build vehicles, and heavily promoted the class to build it from its minimal class count to one of the largest class FFW has. The people and staff who run and opperate FFW are a true class act. Everyone is your friend, they are there to help you, they want to see everyone have a safe and fun weekend. This series has been around for over 15 years!! Thousands and Thousnads of racers, specatators, family, and friends has attended these events. Most everyone I have ever met or seen at these races has an awesome time, the atmosphere is great, the cars are awesome, you really cant beat a fun ford weekend. If you have never been I highly suggest taking time for find one close to you and make plans to attend. Its one of the few ALL FORD racing series left out there. It truely caters to the blue oval faithfuls. Fun Ford Weekend is not harbouring a criminal here. They have nothing to do with SD's previous wrong doings. They do not promote him in any way.
