Ford Fest this year has had a rather soggy disposition, as it copes with the remnants of Hurricane Helene making its way through the Southeast. But despite the relentless rain that drenched Beech Bend Raceway Park Friday and Saturday, the Ford faithful showed up in significant numbers nonetheless, eager to enjoy the camaraderie and competition that Ford Fest is known for.
We salute these hearty folks who refused to let the weather dampen their spirits. They came with Blue Oval machines ready to rock, and did so with energetic aplomb come hell or literal high water.
