i don't think this really is relevant to the question he asked; i expect that he's refering to 'Ford FIRST' as any of the teams sponsored by Ford, much like one may refer to the variety of Delphi teams, or Bristol-Meyer teams.

To answer the original question, i wouldn't be suprised to see a Ford team come out on top (especially with the likes of 1114 and 67...), but a team that has really stuck out in my mind is team 469. if they can play their game, and pick an effective alliance for finals, i think they could win it all.

I think you are mixing up Ford and GM because the teams you mentioned are GM teams

With the way that this competition has been going, I think that anyone, including a Ford First team, could win. All I can say is that time will tell!

Delphi makes parts that are in Ford vehicles - does that count?

The dark side of me wants to ask if that had anything to do with your, um, reliability issues earlier in the season???

And before you say anything, Travis, I do realize they used to be a part of my little company...
