FE Race and Reunion
On April 27th, 2013 (4/27) we will hold the first annual "FE Race & Reunion" at Beaver Springs Dragway in Beaver Springs, PA. 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, TNT and a car show/cruise. There will be 2 FE race classes. Hot FE 12.99 - under and Cool FE 13.00 and up, bracket style. Beaver Bob is supplying trophies to both classes. Racing fee will be $40. When not racing we'll be testing and tuning 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 an award by Beaver Bob. All spectators are free as well. I am trying to set up some good match races from some top FE racers. 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. For everyone involved we hope it pans out to be an annual affair. 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? The event flyer is at http://www.fairlanet.com/fe mark your calendars as we hope to see many of you FE aficionado's head North to Beaver Springs Dragway. We're 5 months away and will keep you all posted and reminders will be often. You may see posts on other sites as well and don't forget to tell your FE friends. I hope I covered it all. If you have any questions you can email Doug or me (see flyer). The Ford Big block FE engine was produced from 1958 until 1976. Sizes in cubic inch include 332, 352, 360, 390, 406, 410 427 & 428. If you’ve got one in a running vehicle bring it out to Beaver Springs Dragway on April 27, 2013. Go to www.beaversprings.com and click on the schedule link. For those looking for something to do on Sunday, Beaver has their weekly Summit ET series racing. We also have a Facebook group established to keep up with information about the event.

Re: FE Race and Reunion
Sounds like another great thing that Bob will be doing for the drag racers !
I have been to the track a few times and for the ones considering going that have never been to the track , you will have no worries on how well the track is . Bob has one of the best tracks around and will hold all the HP your Fe can put out . There are plenty of room to park , sleep over night and bleachers on both sides of the race track . Good food and even buy some Race fuel and parts if you need some . It's well worth the drive and a great track to use ! Hope I can make it up there for that race ! Jim |

Re: FE Race and Reunion
Check out our new website.
http://www.fairlanet.com/FE Just so you guys all know, this isn't just a race. There will be a show/cruise in for ALL FE powered vehicles. It is FREE to show or spectate. You can't beat that. Spread the word. Beaver Springs Dragway is worth the trip!!! Also, this is the perfect oppurtunity if you've always wondered what your FE powered ride will run in a low pressure, laid back enviroment. You can race for a trophy or just make time shots. No pressure, just fun. |
