    Awesome weather for the races at Mission this weekend... awesome display of new & old Fords... nice to see a few members there...

    Wish they would have let me drive into the pits for a "group shot" but here's a couple for now... I gotta remember to use the flash in sharp sunlight - too many hard shadows...

    Yer welcome!... and we can't forget the chaps who helped load the CAR as well... :rolleyes: At least it was a little bit lighter without any oil in it... good luck with the motor!

    I bought another Comet today... if we meet at Mission again maybe I'll be driving in the other lane.

    Naw... with the sun on my wee little digital camera I could barely see what I was shooting - must borrow mum's Handicam next time and "catch the action".

    Here's some shots of two nice blue Mavericks I happened to notice zipping past me... :drive:
