Mustang vs. GTO 2

Thunder in the Swamp!

Gainesville Raceway November 1st 2008

On November 1st, 2008, Modern Mustangs of Jacksonville and members of LS1GTO.com will hold an event at Gainesville Raceway.

We will have more information coming soon so see below for all updates.

Suffice it to say everyone should be very happy with this event!

Sponsors will be joining us so please give them a big thank you and keep them in mind for your next upgrades, just mention you saw them at Mustangs vs. GTO Day 2!

Rules: This will be simple. There will be 80 cars this year. 40 of them Ford powered Mustangs and 40 GTO's with a few other GM powered cars. Cars will be limited to "Street cars". Please leave the real drag cars at home. Of course all required safety equipment must be installed but if it is not a real street car and you have half the interior pulled or swapped with aluminum then this isn't for you. If you need a parachute to slow down then this isn't meant for you this is more for cars that have been hopped up but still retain 90% of the factory items like AC, interior, and stereo. Most of the cars involved are cars you see at most of the cruise-ins and touring around town. This is a ”just for fun” event for bragging rights. No cash prizes will be awarded this year but there will be trophies awarded.

 Nitro Grill will be open, participants and fans are encouraged to use the concessions.

ATTENTION   All cars will be required to pass a Tech Inspection. Please make sure you and your car are in compliance of NHRA requirements. We will not be held responsible if you do not pass tech... If you don't pass Tech you will not be allowed on the track to race!!! All cars must pass NHRA TECH!!!  The NHRA Rule book can be found on line at www.nhra.com.
