Re: "Live" from NMCA Norwalk
 

Barton over Tasca, Barton ran a 8.12 to Tasca's 8.19.

John Calvert won the consistency battle over Paul Roderick... If Mike chimes in he might have the actual numbers.

Paul Roderick won the Cobra Jet shootout on Saturday night

Dave Barton won the Factory Supercar Shootout over Carl Tasca

All the staff with NMCA were REALLY nice. They thanked you for coming while they were parking you. Asked if you had any questions. The tech guys were helpful if you had any issues. .

Talked with Mike Delahanty during dinner about the Cobra Jet program. The whole crew at Watson Racing and Ford were all great to talk to and they live and breathe the Cobra Jet program.
All in all a great experience and a fun weekend.

Kenny and Terry thanks for filling in some of the details here.

Bob, a number of the less experienced drivers liked the idea to get more runs as part of the Cobra Jet Factory Challenge class. Between the time runs on Friday and the runs on Saturday some of the CJ guys got as many as eight runs. As Terry reported above it came down to two of the veterans Calvert and Roderick.

The idea behind this weekend is to bring together the Cobra Jet owners from around the country to race, socialize and be able to work with the Ford Performance engineers. It's a way to build relationships and comradiere between the owners and Ford Performance. There were owners that came from Vermont, California and Alberta Canada. Watson Racing sponsored a nice dinner on Friday night and the racers were treated to lunch on Saturday by Mike And Belinda from Diversified Products Marketing. Watson even provided the pay-per-view fight with Mayweather and McGregor on Saturday night which attracted pretty good size crowd - including some of the COPO guys.

I think you can see there are some nice benefits and perks that come along with Cobra Jet ownership.

Some more video. Chuck Watson went on to run a 8.117 in Q3, only to have David Barton run 8.114 minutes later to take P1.

In the Stock-SS combo, the always tough Ricky Pennington in his CJ had to settle for Runner Up to Daryl Bureski.

Varsity Ford in Ann Arbor has been a huge supporter of the Cobra Jet program from day one.
