Ford Big Block “FE Race & Reunion” - Beaver Springs Dragway - Beaver Springs, PA 4/27
On April 27th, 2013 (4/27) we will hold the first annual "FE Race & Reunion" at Beaver Springs Dragway in Beaver Springs, PA, sponsored by Survival Motorsports www.survivalmotorsports.com . This is an event celebrating the Ford FE Big block. It's a low key, high fun event. Track owner Beaver Bob of Beaver Springs is giving us the track for the entire day. An IHRA 1/4 mile drag strip at our disposal. We will have racing (with pay-out), time shots and a car show. There will be 3 FE race classes. Hot FE 12.99 - under and Cool FE 13.00 and up, bracket style. We will have Pro FE (Quick 8) which will be the quickest 8 cars. They will run a bracket of their own sponsored by Survival Motorsports with pay-out of $400/$200/$100/$50. First round loser of Quick 8 can drop into Hot FE (12.99 – under) and run that class. Trophies and prizes will be awarded to winner and runner up in each class. Racing fee will be $40. When not racing we'll be doing time shots so if you don't want to competitively race you can just have fun and make passes at your own pace all day long. All FE powered show cars are admitted free and eligible for a “Best of Show” award by Beaver Bob. All spectators are free as well. What else could you ask for? A drag strip with only FE powered cars. Beaver Bob has told me, he's not worried about the numbers but I think it would be in our best interest to support a track that is willing to do this for us. We plan this to be an annual event. So if you ever wanted to see what your FE can do in the quarter mile head out to Beaver Springs Dragway for the "FE Race & Reunion" on April 27, 2013 10AM-4PM.
We have everything covered for a successful show but it would make it nicer if we had some door prizes or prizes for the class winners. Parts, apparel, books, etc... all would be great. So if you are a shop owner or FE vendor and want to get some recognition (i.e. advertising time) won't you consider sponsoring some items or donating them? Sponsor ship opportunities are available to support the event, Hot FE & Cool FE prize money. For $100 Beaver Bob will give you a VIP pass and make you feel real honoured and drinks and food on the house all day long. See website for more sponsorship info.
