Was I seeing things or was Jerry's rear glass missing?

If you watch the right side mirror you will see it leave the car.

See, more proof mustangs be driving too fast...

No...just exceptional drivers making do with inferior vehicles, obviously.

When I said to watch out for the 55 I failed to mention he would be going so fast that the rear window would blow out-wow! Give us some more stories and videos for those that didn't get to make it. I saw the lap times Monday and figured it was wet but didn't know it was cooler lid rain.
Hope to see everyone at Hallett.

Orange was actually pretty fast.
Racing in the rain was an absolute hoot. I have some more video - probably see it early 2018 in the 2016 year end.
McSpadden/McCormick/McJander in a different league
Jander threw his right rear brake caliper at me
Sean ran well - still eluded by 1:59.999
Brisket was only so-so
Paul (new guy in the 88) graduated to DE2
Robertson cheated with tread(z)
Patterson sat out

The repair list is probably interesting:
- McCormick engine swap
- Holdway rear-end swap (off track for sure not sure about the rain race)
- Team Jordan lost the back glass
- Jander brake caliper and inside wheel shredding
- Tyler installed the 5.0 Angular Crank Snout Power option (again)
- Orange broke the negative battery terminal
- ARC broke the spare Orange T56

Better?

I also have either a blown head gasket, cracked intake, cracked head, or cracked block. I pulled the dipstick on Monday and noticed a lot of water in the oil. It's odd because I never had an overheating issue all weekend and when I checked the oil Sunday morning I didn't see any trace of water in it, even though I had a misfire all weekend.

Time for a 5.0 they are bullet proof

Lol I've honestly thought about it, but with the number of cranks you dudes have been going through among various other problems makes me hesitant. Plus all the crap I'd need to do the swap. 94/95 K-member, radiator, wiring, sensors, 94/95 bellhousing, 94/95 input shaft, tranny, motor, 89-93 computer and maf. It all starts to add up pretty quick.

Ha ha
You get the old motor tore down yet? Im curious as to where the failure was.

And I forgot:
- Dukes of Hazard Remake 32 and Gary "Big Air" Robertson
- Jander "I don't need no stinkin' static suspension settings" - with a notably/visibly loose front strut
