    I saw a 2.3 turbo probe go 8.50's at more than 150mph this weekend at Mason's all ford event. It was sporting a T76 turbo, air to water IC, etc. It was BAD ASS!

    Yes, you are right, it was Fred House. Troy (yeahloh95) was there too and he knew of Fred from the 2.3 boards. He was a super nice guy and the type of racer that I enjoy meeting. Where's he from, it seemed as though he was sort of local.
