Ford racing parts not just for race cars
While recently attending some endurance races in Sebring, FL, I spent a lot of time walking around chatting with the race attendees and viewing an incredible assortment of vehicles that had some major after market work done to them. When you are watching a race that can last as long as 24 hours, there is a lot of time in that day to check things out.
One fellow and I started talking about some of the work he had done on his little Ford Ranger pickup truck. It had an amazing paint job and was plain to see that he had a ton of oem Ford parts that he’d installed throughout the vehicle. Probably the key issue about his truck, and so many others that I observed that day was how clean and pristine they all were.
He really blew me away however, when he opened the engine compartment. The stock motor was barely visible for all of the Ford racing parts he’d installed. When I asked him about street legality, and the philosophy behind his actions, he only had one thing to say:
Ford racing parts are not just for racing cars, my friend!
After hearing him start the engine and rev it a few times, not only could I listen to the difference, but I felt it reverberating throughout my body.
