| The Now and Then pictures of the FS260 19912011Backstory: 20 years ago today, the Tri-Star, also known as the FS260, rolled out from the Fortner Motorsports factory for the first time. It became an instant hit among consumers. Over 1,500 1991-92 model year FS260's were produced with a 6.5 liter aluminum pushrod V8. Consumers had the option of choosing a V6 version with a 3.7 liter "Quad" injector. Today, the FS260 continues to be the most successful franchise among the sports car public. Since 1991, over 4 million FS260's have been sold. This year marks the 20th Anniversary of the Fortner FS260, winner of numerous automobile magazine awards including Raceway Illustrated's 2010 Race Car of the Year. Happy 20th Anniversary to the Fortner FS260!

Well, you may want to change it considering Cy wasn't too happy with you taking parts from his cars before. | |

Well, you may want to change it considering Cy wasn't too happy with you taking parts from his cars before. The '91 spec's been changed. Now, what about the '11 spec? Is Cy not happy with that one either? |
