Default weak field

Iam not surprised that this year is weak comapred to 2005,2006,2007. The stock market and economy started going down the drain in 2007, which is when you would have had to start your project to compete today. Not too many people felt like spending a million bucks on a ridler contender in 2007. Hopefully succesive years will improve as the economy does and the rebirth of GM and Chrysler. The new technology loooks promising. Ford's new 5.0, and Hotrod mag already featured a 32 rod with their ecoboost twin turbo v6 in it!!

The future still looks bright. can;t wait to see a 66 fastback built with the new 5.0 or ecoboost twin turbo. should be able to get 500 hp easy from that, now just need a 6 speed twinclutch paddleshift. good to go!

ridler 2013 should raise the bar again from troy's "first love' 34 ford
