No, because there are too many people like your car running. All the fast cars are gone from waiting 45 min. in line with 17+ second cars...

Atleast this Escort can run a mid 15, not impressive but not bad for a Scort with minor bolt ons.

Ryan man whats with all the hatred man.

I'll be out there with a couple Contour SVT's and a focus. Nothing else better to do for $8.

The hatred is from all the rash of 18-20 second wanna-be's that have taken over 1320. It's sick when 15 and 16 seconds looks fast because of all the other cars running so slow.

Basically anyone faster than 14.0 hardly goes anymore because they don't want to wait in an hour line to run down the track. It just gets REALLY OLD. And the sad thing is, all these kids are serious about running. Bone stock automatic cars sitting there with hoods popped, pushing the cars, doing extended burnouts on street radials, not knowing how to stage, etc. It just blatantly shows that none of those people have any business on the track.

I'm going and don't worry about those guys. You paid your money just like they did............If they want someone to complain about they should talk to the guys that go in front of us. I saw that Black wagon run like 12 times last month. Not everyone can start off in the 14-12 sec range.

its true in some parts, but its also a learning experience for alot of these guys that are running slower. I say this because alot of them race on the street and when you smoke them by one or two or three or four car lengths they will always say " oh you didnt smoke me by much" meanwhile as a true racer you know that even two car lengths could be as good as a two second difference in the quarter. so those of you that are racing and running slow times to shave two seconds off your is going to take tons of money or a huge shot of nos. which it may not even be worth it.
SO KEEP HAVING FUN BUT DONT SLOW US DOWN
