    This is not a joke, for you all that have a negative comment keep it to your self. This 4 team of guys that will holding this have more than 100 years with these motors. And they have a very deep pocket.

    The guy starts off with "We are proud to announce" , who the hell is "We" ? Let's see if he comes back on here and says who "We" is, then we can determine if it's real or not. I'm pretty sure it's crap. It sure sounds like crap.

    $166K in winnings and $75K in funding the builds… didn't know Bill Gates liked racing.

    Ford didn't spend that designing that engine!!!

    Who would be stupid enough to fund something like that? This is the dumbest thing I have heard in a long time. Wow!

    I notice Jix008 is not responding. Oh well, it gave us something to laugh about.

    Well it appears that this was all Bull**it. The guy who started this (JIX008) is Jerry Simpson that races at I25 Speedway. I had some people email the address he provided in his original post and most of them got no return info from him. A few did here back and were told there would be more info to come but that was it. Did anyone else here back from him?
