Wet Indeed
It was a very wet weekend with an number of us chancing slicks on Saturday only to find out that was the WRONG choice. Dave and Phil are great at running in the wet out qualifying most of the rest of the CFF field by 10 seconds in the wet. On Sunday I think Brad finished 2nd and ran a great race I got third. While I got by Brad briefly on the back straight final lap, he passed me back and took 2nd. I was very impressed with all of the rain and potential for carnage that we had that there was very little damage to any of the cars. Everyone was very well behaved and still raced agressively. The formula Vees and formula first cars were very forgiving as well, as the fords were faster on the straights and they were faster through the corners. I'm sure they were getting frustrated with us but everyone behaved and we had a great weekend despite the weather. Thanks for all of the folks that towed over from the other side of the lake, we appreciate you coming over for the race. It was great putting faces with names and Phil did a great job on the presentation of awards and describing the EWC. Thanks to Luxon Printing for the great poster they put together and Sarah for being the EWC pointskeeper! Thanks also to all of the sponsors this year and participants. Start spreading the word now to get more Fords out of the garages to participate next year, we all have to be recruiting and mentoring to help build the field.
