Heads-up!

And keep in mind Boudreau has a car that usually can outrun most any old school car and also LT-1 and LS-1 Camaro's and Firebirds heads up....

An .093 RT by Fetch tells you he knew he had Boudreau covered .Anthony does not generally hit RT's like that......

Well we are back home after another Indy. After Larry got beat by Bo again, I figured Bo was destined to win the race again, but he got beat in the 3rd round. We went up into the stands to watch the 2nd round and had planned on watching the 3rd before we came home, but it was just brutal in the sun. So we loaded up and headed on home where it was 95, too.

I have a few more pics to post from the week:

These are more from the Skillmans last night:

now ford has sent dealer staff and engineers to dissasemble and tech the cars. im not sure about mopar.

i would like to see the drivers dissasemble and reassemble these cars, just wondering how many could even drive out of the barn ??

jack

p.s. barn at times looked like a new car dealership shop...almost all new cars, many mechanics, and many drivers just watching them work on thier cars.

I think it is great Ford Motor Company came to Indy and gave support to racers.Very positive move by Ford and thank so much for taking the time for the reports and the great pictures.
