Hall of Fame Pro Stock driver Bob Glidden talks about his return to Pro Stock competition. Glidden is driving a Jim Cunningham Mustang at this weekend's NHRA US Nationals at Raceway Park in Indianapolis.
compensated for or abused by Ford , money didn't buy his enthusiasm or his greatness, but they sure could make it worth his families while to rejoin the ranks of Ford
Ford, with their new return to drag racing the past few years, ought to honestly give Bob G. a supervisory role, pay him a Qmil a year plus expenses to over see and be the go2guy for these buyers of the cobra race cars. The life he has given for racing and his dedication po Ford Motorsports cannot be >>

Ford you hear me, and seriously, e-mail me I'm writing and calling today, and yea I'll get the old stand-by form letter/answer back, but if you do listen, mind what I say, use your advertising dollars in the right places and you'll gain more lifelong believes/buyers than ever before.
Think about it, others please comment, what is it worth more to see and believe in, a 30 second blah tv ad or to know, shake hands and visit at the races Mr. Bob G. himself..seriously. Thanks
@wannagofast2.my son is an Aerospace engineer and a former NASA engineer. He absolutely hates Airbus and won't hardly fly on them anymore. He feels Mr. Boeing still has the best rig out there. Yes, American corporations are hell bent on kissing the monkey. They and their dumass management suck. But this is what has been running our country so let it go.
@raginroadrunner I wouldnt want money from any of them. I have worked for all of the Big 3 as a tech and they screw the technicians that struggle daily just figuring out how they built another pile of crap product. you can take that statement towards all imported vehicles as well. the only American product made today is in the air, and that wont be for much longer either.
@BBFBoss429 ..ya better hurry..Jason Line, Mike Edwards and Vincent Noble have one helluva jump on ya...this is what happens when Ford deserts their top teams...
@wannagofast2 ...I ran Fords in the sixties and I saw Ford screw every high performance team out there..Ford management sucks worse than any of the big three..they screwed the Cammers, Tunnel ports , the Clevelands, and the small block owners and are still doing it to this day. Mopar had the best program and GM never turned tail and ran like Ford did. Ford never goes into anything for the long haul..just get in and screw em and get out..what a bunch of jerks.
@bigblockmustang Ford Never Gave bob a penny during his entire Career, He even paid to have his Ford logos put on his own car. He Budgeted the entire program himself as long as Ford kept their nose out of his business he was happy. Nobody told him what or how to Race His Cars. If more racers were like bob the sport would be so much better than it is today. Non-coprporated...
