FFR Spec Car Wins First Place in 100 Mile Enduro Race!

johnmciver.jpg (20139 bytes) Congrats go out to FFR Spec Car driver John McIver from Northville, Michigan.  John won first place in the Labor Day NASA 100 mile Enduro at Beaver Run Raceway in Pennsylvania.  John beat a serious field of racers driving some reeeeal fast race cars (like a race prepped viper, a Porche 911 GTR car and others).

The story is a great one.  John wrecked his spec car the previous week and still managed to make the NASA event with a combination of duct tape, cable ties and jigsaw.

John made the grid without a qualifying time and had to start in the last position.  Over the course of the 100 mile race, he worked his way up to first and finished the race a full three laps ahead of the next fastest car.

John is a great example of the typical FFR Spec car pilot.  He works as a trouble-shooter at Ford Motor Company during the week.  John will be vying for the National title in Las Vegas on November 8 & 9 this year.
All of us at FFR send out a big thumbs up to John and a hearty congrats on the win! johnmciver2.jpg (29499 bytes)
