56 Panel doing autocross

Found this on Facebook. You can hear what I think is the bumper scrapping on the ground on hard turns.

I don't think he had a stock suspension under there. He did rather well and seemed to really have a good time.

Yep that is Bobco at the Goodguys show at Del Mar this past weekend. He always brings some of his trucks to the Western Nationals if anyone is interested in seeing some exceptional F100 work. Bobco Info

That was an exceptional run. I'd love to see his time against the other cars.
