THIS ONE'S FOR MY DAD
 
As you all know i've had some trouble with my stang here lately so she down to a rolling chassis as we speak.But what i wanted to say is my dad passed away on May17 of lung cancer while i was at world ford challenge.And his dream was to drag race for a living and he could never afford to get started.So this is my promise to him i will make my stang a full race car and i will go to almost every ford event i don't now how long it will take me to do so but i will do it.I'm getting ready to buy a coupe for a daily driver and the gt is going to the shop for a cage in 2weeks but i guarntee you will see me at most nmra events and some FFW events starting next year this is my promise

First off, sorry to hear about your Dad.

But on a positive note, with your Dad's passing, maybe he'll be helping you win those races by making your opponents car run out of gas half way down the track.

Good Luck in your passion to excel on the track!

Sorry about your dad's passing. That's a really great way to honor you father, though. I think he'd be proud (I know I would). Good luck, and if you need any help, advice, or support, we're all right here. http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/smile.gif

That's a helluva tribute man. My dad died on May 3rd from Lymphoma and I'm getting an epitaph for him tattooed on my back. Everyone has to have their own personal drive. Good luck man...maybe I'll see you at those events.
