Ford has not a good Pro Stock racer since Bob Glidden, who retired in 1997 with 10 pro stock championships. He was unbeatable for awhile there in the late 80's.

NHRA pro-stocks hate fords for some reason and they try to make anything with the Ford name on it illegal but get ready boys... theres a 2010 mustang that might be privately funded for racing in the next 1-1.5 years.
"Since the word is out, I thought I should comment so the rumors don't get totally out of hand and cuase problems. First off, FORD IS NOT SPENDING ANY MONEY ON THIS DEAL!. Its all privately funded from other entities who will remain anonymous at least until they deem it necessary to make them self's known. The funds are there, the thing is a GO and progress is being made. Anything this complex takes a team of individuals and companies to pull off not to mention a lot of time to complete. Its not going to happen over night and its not going to happen in a year. It might take a year and half before everything is completed."

I would be great to have a top tier team for Ford in Pro stock again. I like pro stock racing but hate the fact it is all Mopar and GM. Ford had some pretty strong cars a while back in IHRA mountain motor pro stock, but I haven't followed IHRA in awhile.

i dont really care for it. there's no way you are going to compete without a R&D department with about a billion dollars. at least with the big power cars you can win with luck on your side. in pro stock you need the best car no matter what because no one blows the tires off of them or has failure compared to nitro classes.
