TC - great winter racer (pics incl.)

On last weekend we had a racing day, arranged by Finnish British Ford club and Mustang club. And of course when it's winter time, racing track was on the ice. And of course we had also drag race-strip. I have never raced on the ice before, this was first time and it was FUN!! I let the pictures tell more. Tempereture was -10 F whole day...

I have been forced to use TC as my winter car because SHO has valve job going on. I have been quite pleased how good winter car this actually is. I have good Pirelli studded winter tires and some extra load in the trunk. Have had no problems during winter. It's also warm and starts always nicely. I have no warm garage but I use engine pre-heater.

I even won the first prize in my class. I was fastest American car on the track. I think this was the one and only time when I can beat that 95 Cobra on race track... Prize was great, Garret 04 turbocharger!

After long day, hard trying and couple of "WHOOPS" this is how my engine bay looked like.
