mjhpadi Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 Wow, I did forget about them being this week-end! And it is a beautiful day to attend, temperature is about 72, and not too sunny, just enough with some occasional clouds drifting by! And my friends: Adam's Polishes are supposed to be there for this event, this week-end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a blast and it would fun to have more SHO owners there. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firstcontact1977 Posted June 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 [ATTACH=CONFIG]647[/ATTACH] All: I was lucky enough to be voted "first place" in the SHO stock category on Saturday. I have to say that I can't help but think that Ken's hood strips, the tips I've seen on this forum, and the Ford Custom Graphics helped in this regard. It was great show and thanks to those of you who might have been there and voted for me. Next year, it would be great if more fourth generation SHOs were there. There was good representation of SHOs from all the generations, but we were outnumbered by the mustangs and focuses. I will make sure the word gets out the forum next May. On another note, I spread the word about the forum to the other fourth generation owners who were unaware of the site. Hopefully, some of them will check it out.

Enjoy. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpoolinX2 Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 If there's one thing I always took away from the Ford Nationals, it's always that Mustangs over-run the show. They get the whole main showfield, and the other Ford "step-children" get stuck on the hill. It's a bit much how much they devote to the Mustang.
