Over the last 8 months I have been given as awesome opportunity to built a race car from the ground up. The project started as a primer green body in white Mustang and made its first two passes today at Numidia Dragway. Man...what a relief. It was an amazing feeling to have a car that I have been laboring over for all that time make a "full" pass down the track. The combo is a 2012 Cobra Jet 302 5-speed car. It's going to be an absolute blast to drive and I have posted a link to the Bongiovanni Racing Facebook page which has pictures of the car and an awesome burnout video from the first pass this afternoon. For those of you who have helped along the way, you know who you are and I can not thank you enough. If you get a chance, jump on the Facebook page and check out the pictures and videos we have been posting throughout the year. See you at Indy!

older guys don't bother with Facebook, so a lot of stuff thats put on there gets missed by a considerable amount of Classracer followers. My 2 cents,,, and nice looking Mustang too,,, love the stick cars. Danny Durham |

Me too...I really wanted to hear that Coyote howl in the box but at 52 (next week) I guess I'm to old for FB also. Personally, I have no desire for it but why digress? Just give us the dang link and I hope the sound quality is good so I can turn it up! (I did finally change to an iMac though..so there may be hope for some of us old farts!)

You would find a lot of "old" class racers there, right Jeff? LOL

I could give a rat's *** about your comment about someone liking Fords or not, as even though I owned and raced Chevys for over 40 years, I've been around many friends and acquaintences who've run Mopars and Fords and other GMs, I've enjoyed them all and have helped in many builds. Some of my all time favorite racecars were Fords,, but enough of me explaining myself to you,, you've gotten enough of my time. Danny Durham |
