It has been an amazing seven years of Ford racing that has led us up to this event. I want to thank each and every one of you for your part in making the WFC so special. As a racer, car show participant, sponsor, or fan, you have done your part in making Ford racing history. And, together, we will shape the future of this great sport with larger crowds, record-setting performances, and good times. If this is your first experience with the WFC, welcome. I think you will quickly realize why they call the World Ford Challenge the "Super Bowl" of all Ford events. Now, on with the show!Sincerely,George Gonzalez*payout subject to change without notice
