Very NICE, Mark!  Lookin' Good!
Did anyone see the red 3-pedaled '69 of Red LeBlanc's there? I did see that his son, Shaun, and his GT/A fox body was there; but no sign of Red..... 
I see where Fred Moreno in his '69FB SS/GA made it to the 2nd round,,, Ryan

Steve: Unfortunately my trans broke 3rd gear on a pass that figured to run dead on. I had a .030 light he had a .010 light I was 10.69 on 10.65 he was 8.786 on 8.78 dial on the brakes, I needed to be closer to the stripe to break him out. ------------------

Red was there with his son Shaun. Red wasnt able to get in for Pomona so they just ran his son's car. Thats a bad*** FE..------------------

Thanks for the update, S&HJ... Any idea why Red couldn't "get in for Pomona"? I LUV watching Red launch that way hot FE-powered, 3-pedaled, red '69FB Stang!
