I've always liked those falcons.The C pillar and long rear glass makes it look like a small galaxie500.

That waqs a neat car they did. The wheels looked killer on that car and that Boss crate 363 sounded really strong. Got my wheels turning in my head. Uh Oh.

It was a pretty good show. I didnt like the comments they made regarding owning a race car though. (paraphrasing) "Race Cars will take your money, you house, your family..." Thanks Richard. My wife was watching that with me.

The Falcon just got upgraded with a set of our TQ CoilOvers and rear shocks. It will be racing at the USCA event this weekend.

I heard the only way to become a millionaire with a race car is to start a billionaire.

I can see the losing house, family, friends, fortune, etc with a car project. But as long as you are living within your means and being realistic with your budget/goals there is no reason you can't keep all the above and have a car.
