Not that I have had many drives over the past couple of years, and I missed the GT Guys in Southern Maryland on a rainy Saturday, and I have clicked over 30,000 miles, so when the shifting began to get on the difficult side, the thought of a new clutch wasn’t so bad. Almost not being able to get...

During the yearly car preparations, I typically replace all 4 rotors, pads, fluid, along with an oil change, and from time to time flush the trans axle fluids. I know the GT Guys are scheduled to be with 100 miles next month, and I had purchased the accessory and supercharger belts from Torrie...

Just want to throw this onto the forum for any in this general area who'd like to get a bit more track time in. The next place I am heading is the July 14-15 event at Watkins Glenn: https://www.trackmasters.com/Page.asp?Script=1 Another consideration is with the Northern Virginia Corvette...

Only had a limited time to spend at Carlisle yesterday, but snapped a few photos: http://home.comcast.net/~fordgtofmaryland/Carlisle.htm Pete S.

This event might be a good warm up for those in the area planning on going to the later gathering at VIR: I can say that the 2 FR-500 entrants are also FGT folks on this forum, and I will be signing on before too long. Here is a link to the SVT Cobra Mustangs Page...

This May, there is another fairly large track event at VIR: http://www.svtcobraclub.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17461 I have not registered yet, still there are 2 FGT's signed on. I expect that my local track buddy, Jim, will bring his quick silver out with me in my red car. I also have a...

The time fast approaches for the next “big time” track event at Virginia International Raceway put on by the SVT Cobra Mustang Club (SCMC). There will definitely be 3 FGT’s attending as I look at who is already signed on, and this is the full 3.7 mile course with the amazingly long back...

Hey. Where's GT JOEY? Pete S.

Had a fantastic time on the big track at Summit Point, West Virginia with Mike from PA and Rich from VA. Phil showed up a big late with his '06, and the weather couldn't have been better as it rained all around us but never a drop on the track. Have to thank Rich for reminding me of this event...

I just wanted to throw this out here as we may have at least 5 Ford GT's attend this "Charity" event run similar to the SCMC events I have attended, and enjoyed. One plus to this event is that during the luch break several folks line up their cars on the grid and instructors or professionals...

In this start of the information, simply put we had three Ford GT's at Virginia International Raceway this weekend. Friday was the full course at 3.7 miles and Saturday & Sunday were on the North course, about 2.7 miles. Two cars experienced power steering failures as of yet not fixed. On...

I couldn't find the thread started yesterday regarding the current F-150 truck pricing, but I had responded promising to visit my dealer today, which I did. The prices were as stated in yesteday's thread, and it looks like I'll be hanging on to my '05 a bit longer as these prices were, in my...

The SCMC has a list of some of their track events for 2009, and they can be seen here: http://home.comcast.net/~pgsionbeam/SCMC09[1].htm Pete S.

There have been others finding small leaks in the half shaft and breather areas. This is a bit different and I will not have a definitive answer as to a small crack or a porous case for a few days. Even with the unit out we cannot "see" a crack, the fluid simply appears to pool right through the...

I have been transporting a spare set of wheels for my Ford GT in my trailer and right from the start did my best to protect them from each other and from everything else, including the car. I think Brute Industries has again met my desires in this regard by creating a set of what they are...

Not sure if anyone else has had one of these loosen up and need attention, so after speeking with Bill (Shadowman) and after countless tips from Rich and Denis (The GT GUY's) over the years, I pulled off the front nose section and re-attached the duct. I took some photo's during the process and...

http://home.comcast.net/~petraathome/images/SoldierFord.wmv I was sent this Ford Commercial and didn't know how recent it was/is. So, I pasted it onto a link . . . above.

Calling PA, NJ, & Surrounding Area FGT Owners -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Calling PA, NJ, & Surrounding Area FGT Owners Just a heads up, Furlong, ACR Joe and I will be driving our FGT's to New Hope, PA, Saturday May 12th around 3pm to enjoy...

I have an SCT unit loaded up by Mr. Torrie R. McPhail - (Owner) http://www.fastpartsnetwork.com http://www.UnleashedTuning.com SCT Custom Calibrator The programs in the SCT are for a FGT with Heffner Pulley 2 7/8 set up. $500 Or best reasonable offer.

Now that I have had my car back for one week, and have had a chance to take it out of the garage with some sunshine, I wanted to take a moment and thank Rich and Denis for their professionalism repairing and modifying my Ford GT. The paint looks better than it did from the factory, the fitment...
