Well I'm ticked off with the issue. The writing for the autocross was very simplistic, the red 4th gen should have failed tech due to the hackjob battery hold down, and the green firebird with the crumpled hood was in CP with street tires on a hot sumer day and only made 1 run after he knew he was spotted by a reader. Both cars were WAY off the pace and the author is actually a mustang guy. He also failed to get one good shot of the other 2 f bodies there putting up a good fight! Bruce was there for one of the days as well. If you think it has to do something with permission to use someone's likeness, I'll find out if the tech crew gave him permission when I see them on Sunday. FYI, they're all mustang people... coincidence? In fact I recognize most of the faces shown in that article.
One issue with the article are the fact that they say you can get ride alongs with better drivers. During the driver's meeting it was clearly stated that the only way you can get 2 people in a car is if one is an instructor. Also, the comment about leaving and not being able to get back in isn't necessarily correct either. Granted Englishtown isn't the easiest place to get in and out of, but other events aren't like that. You don't even have to leave Englishtown since they have gas, food, and a very small parts store. If he did some more research it would be apparent that a bunch of clubs use stadium parking lots where you can come and go as you please. However, I would have rave reviews if my car was at least shown in the background! |
