    That was a daily chuckle...

    Didn't Ford pull out of NHRA a few yrs ago? Does that make John Force a loser also?

      Josh is a super talent. Love watching him race. He was losing most races instead of winning most of them and he was losing the championship instead of leading it until the moment he put the ol D3 in her. So thankful for the whole Richards clan. Beautiful race cars and rigs, wheels polished to a mirror finish, the best chassis and most importantly smart enough to run the good stuff under the hood The only team in all of professional dirt track racing truly giving it their best with good taste and style.

            LOL haha.

            I wish i could afford one of them awesome Fords.

            I agree thou, once he got the Fords he took off, wasn't slow before but you could tell a difference.

            Just say no...

              Why aren't the chevy LS engines successful? We all know of the ct525 and a few regional guys who might run a 418 LS. But what about LS7 (427) is it cost or performace?

                Durability and HP... Right now a wide bore is the hot ticket.

                  Remember when Bloomquist showed up with an ls engine at a SAS race, and everybody flipped their lid?

                  Here's a story of why ls doesn't quite jive with supers.

                    Bloomquist is always looking for an advantage. I remember when Bloomquist ran Chevy engines along with everyone else in the eighties to early nineties. Then Bloomquist put a Ford engine in his SLM and became a dominating living legend.

                      The Ford D3 is far superior. It takes Josh Richards from loser to winner..... has done so multiple times and as recently as mid 2017. Its no wonder the WoO sprint car officials hooked on mega average won't allow it. They would rather make Ford Motor Company spend two fortunes trying to come up with something ordinary enough so their ocean of sbc lovers don't get their feelings hurt... and then have the lack of class to say its to keep costs down.

                          HatTrick, are you sure Josh runs a RY45 ? Early last season Josh started using the same engine he had in the Rocket house car in 2016. That was a D3 Ford.

                            with an unlimited budget why not a dodge engine. then you weight less than a chevy and within a handfull of the ford with a better deck height and wider bore spacing.
