Help me think ahead.............

It breaks my heart to even think this.... much less say it.....but Cystic Fibrosis is a killer of the young. The Fling evolved as a recognition of Jenny's condition and a national focus on Cystic Fibrosis by OWNERS of Factory Five Racing cars. We could not have a finer calling than to use FFR cars and others of similar types to bring focus to Cystic Fibrosis.

Factory Five doesn't need the Fling to sell cars but Dave's family needs us to support a cure for their child.

Over 4000 FFR roadsters and other makes have been sold and will be on the road in the next 12 months or so. Think about the focus 300 cars brought to the disease and think how many of the remainging thousands of Owners will want to join the focus in years to come.....at London and elsewhere.

Can you envision..................
A NATIONAL Fling in 3 years with 800 plus cars. ...a chore for DV to handle alone?
REGIONAL Flings supported by Cystic Fibrosis possibly, where 30-100 cars bring folks out to a local facility for "$10 road speed laps" before the group does Poker Runs, Autocosses, picnics, etc.?
A Fling where Cystic Fibrosis takes over some of the organizational tasks, advertising, banners, etc .....and are glad to do it?
A Fling that brings Cystic Fibrosis sufferers to National & Regional Flings so they and their parents can be entertained?
A Fling that brings National TV coverage to the little town of London and how their generosity helps Cystic Fibrosis and leads other little towns to do something similar?
A Fling with ONLY an organized Saturday parade, display and runs in Longon with everything else on Friday, Saturday night and Sunday organized by individual FFROGS (poker runs, auctions, picnics, etc.)?
A removeable sticker for our cars offering "$10 Rides For Cystic Fibrosis" where we provide them an envelop to make their donation?

Think about the Yellow Ribbons and all the other ways we generous Americans bring focus to issues.

Will there be a day where our cars wear a unique mark of support for Cystic Fibrosis? And a day when the public sees these cars and automatically thinks about Cystic Fibrosis and the cures that our focus is bringing about?

So help me think ahead....beyond the next gathering.... to a time in the future..................
