    Nhra funny car and tasca question

    When Tasca Ford came to Connecticut Dragway in the 60's, I only remember them running Mustangs. There wasn't many sponsored cars in stock classes then. So we weren't that happy to see them. Everything then was just the average guy running what they drove.

    Yeah, that was totally cool. His dad was the one that got John Force into a Ford funny car back in the 80's or 90's right?
