How was your long weekend?

Mine was great and i got to pick up my new to me OBS in the process!

Here is my original thread on purchase

https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...-obs-game.html


Everyone wanted some more pictures from when i get it, and i got a few video clips coming once my buddy gets them to me.

I picked it up in BC and headed to Penticton Motor Speedway for our Driftwest Round 3 event which is a 4 Round Drift series up here in Western Canada.

Was an amazing weekend full of tire smoke, crashes and good friends.

Everyone complimented the truck and i got asked if i would be the tow rig incase anyone broke down or crashed and needed a tow off the track.

The Grey "Drift Farm" car is my roomates Silvia, also the White Soarer i am towing a LS7 V8 swapped car, full crate engine, he was still working out some ECU issues in this pic, he just finsihed the swap last weekend, a LS into a RHD vehicle is NOT an easy swap haha

let me know what you think!

"The Stack" I like to pay for things in Cash.


We Made it to the track!








Tow Time!

ran this set to the end! it was still holding air too!


Did a ride along and wall tap in this stang! Wall tapping at 75mph is the craziest feeling!


Also did a few ride alongs in my roomates car! he has mad style on the track


Popped open to cool down


Bad crash into a pole, fronts all mangled too


I LOVE LONG BOXES! Set my tent up right in the box, kept my gear in my toolbox and had a mobile campsite for 2!

Nice rig Duggy. Wrong colour, but nice rig. Never heard of Earl Grey before. Not that far from me. kinda. Haven't seen you on the Manitoba/Saskatchewan chapter. You part of that group? Nice drifting shots too!

Love it! I never thought of it that way.VERY interesting (in the voice of austin powers)...

My weekend sucked.I worked around the house getting it ready for the new baby soon. The highlight was when I got to replace the hinge pins and bushings on my truck.

SO MUCH still to be done and maybe 3 weeks to go...wish me luck!

I still LOVE your truck by the way! SUCH a great color!
