Can't wait to get out of this cold weather and down to Orlando for the weekend! We are happy to sponsor the Fun Ford Weekend Tough Truck class for the 7th year in a row! This is a awesome class were we always have Ton's of Lightnings participate along with other Ford pick ups. This class for anyone who hasnt ever participated is a bunch of fun. It also gives you a chance to meet and race with an awesome group of guys. There are about 10 regular followers of the series and then Gentleman who has won the last 3 years straight has done it with his 01 Lightning truck, most of you know Don Justus! His 9 sec capable rig is worth it alone just to come and watch the class! We plan to have a large showing this year already so it may be a worth while trip to make it out there!

Its comming up this weekend Guys who's Going!!!???

Hey Jim
Can I race the Saleen pickup truck??????

Gonna race as well but have no seat time on the new setup

Someone should get an easy win.

Bring a set of front drag springs down so I can talke the wife into them

 

You will get 3 runs on saturday to get used to the new setup, and depending on the weather sunday, you often get a 4th practice run first thing sunday morning

 

Cool
