I went to this a couple weeks ago and thought some here might enjoy the pictures. We were just spectating, and had a good time.

F.A.S.T. is a club for early Ford 4-cylinders with cool vintage speed-parts. The event is open to pre-1935 4-cylinder cars only.

Northwood has willing and able volunteers to organize a Hillclimb, a supportive local government that allows them to close a road, and some local and not-so-local "Hot For Hot Fours" speed junkies who want to compete, but they have no hill... so it's basically a 1/10th mile drag race time trial event, and the only "Flat Hillclimb" I've ever heard of.

They're a hoot!

Here's the car I tried to buy earlier this summer, but it sold before I could get to North Carolina to pick it up.

What kind of speed or ET were they running?

 

[Derek69SS]

1/10th mile, speeds of the fastest ones were in the low 50s for MPH. I don't remember the ETs.

The fastest of the T's was the orange one, which put about 70hp to the rear wheels on a chassis dyno. The bare aluminum one hasn't been dyno'd but was very close to the same speed.
